How you telling me you love me then you take it back
What's love?
Can you tell me that
If I gave you the world, would you give it back?
Like oh-oh
Can you tell me
Is my heart on my sleeve
Or in your coat?
I just wanna know, baby
Where the love go?
Yeah, I don't even know myself
Tryna help me but I don't need help
You said you loved me and no one else
Yeah, so here's a love letter to myself
Yeah, I don't even know myself
Tryna help me but I don't need help
You said you loved me and no one else
Yeah, so here's a love letter to myself
Hey, I just wantto check in
I've been really worried about you
Uh, where have you been
What's going on?
All these memories, they're bringing problems back
You know the way I feel
There's nothing wrong with that
You got a new man
But can I help with that
I just hope you find yourself
'Fore you hit me back
Like oh-oh
Can you tell me
Where the love go?
Is my heart on my sleeve
Or in your coat?
I just wanna know, baby
Where the love go?
Yeah, I don't even know myself
Tryna help me but I don't need help
You said you loved me and no one else
Yeah, so here's a love letter to myself
Yeah, I don't even know myself
Tryna help me but I don't need help
You said you loved me and no one else
Yeah, so here's a love letter to myself
Wait, I spent some time by myself
Realize I don't need nobody else, yeah
I'm just tryna find the love inside me
Can you please just let me die in peace
They say if you love her then you let her go
And you want the best for me yes, I know
I just need to take a step back and grow
But you deserve the world, I hope you know
I guess you really found yourself
Now that you're happy with somebody else
You said you love me but you love yourself
Yeah, so here's a love letter to myself
Yeah, I don't even know myself
Tryna help me but I don't need help
You said you love me and no one else
Yeah, so here's a love letter to myself
Yeah, I don't even know myself
Tryna help me but I don't need help
You said you love me and no one else
Yeah, so here's a love letter to myself
