You Don't Love Me
Thomas B. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh oh
I thought I'd see you smile
When I walked in the door
Thought those arms of yours would be open wide
The way they were before
Why do you look at me
Like I'm some stranger now
Why do you pull away
When you used to hold me so tight

Don't you love me anymore
Have your learned to live your life without me
Don't you love me, anymore
When did the fire go out
Where did the feeling go
Did it slip away when I wasn't there
Baby now I've come home
I thought you'd want me babe
I was so sure you'd ask me to to stay
I thought you'd need this too
Guess it didn't work out that way

Don't you love me anymore
Have you learned to live your life without me
Don't you love me anymore
Darling

When did the fire go out
Where did the feeling go
Why do you pull away
When you used to hold me so close baby
Don't you love me anymore
Have your learned to live your life without me
Don't you love me anymore




Don't you love me anymore
Have your learned to live your life without me

I liked this boy for 4 years (my entire high school experience) he was a random guy to a classmate. I developed the biggest crush on him, but I always ignored it because we never talked. He saw me as the quiet, lonely, nice guy that sat in the back when I saw him as the most beautiful and nice guy ever.

In my senior year, I decided to let my feelings consume me and try to make him notice me to see if he liked me back.
A friend asked him what he thought of me.
He said that I wasn’t his type.

That hurt like hell. Four words destroyed the end of my school year. I fell into a big depression. I lost my appetite, wasn’t enjoying the things I loved, listened to the same 3 sad songs, and even considered harming myself, and I imagined how would the people close to me react when I left.

I did all that to myself when he was out there living his life not knowing what I was going through.

Later, I found out that he had a girlfriend all this time. That broke my heart even more. Scenarios I imagined and countless dreams I had of him every day meant nothing. My subconscious was happy and I was alone.

I finally graduated and I won the battle against depression. Forgetting about him was the best option. Even though I loved him for four years.

I still dream of him once in a while. It makes me remember the time I let myself fall in love with someone who just said one word to me.

I don’t know if he one day finds and reads this. If it happens, It feels good to let it out.

We shared the same name, but not the same feelings.

He should know by that detail.

He was still crouched low in front of a sleeping Allison in their living room when he had snapped out of his thoughts. With the earlier memories clear in his mind he gently scooped her up in his arms and carried her to the bedroom.
As he lowered her onto the bed he found himself reluctant to leave. He gingerly sat on the side of the bed having tucked her in. Contrary to his earlier promise to himself, he knew he was the cause of her misery. What kind of wife would like their arrangements?
Allison was perfect. She was repeatedly the top student of her college until she graduated, assistant lecturer at a nearby college, a successful business woman and worked from home ever since their marriage. Looking at her sleeping form he realized despite never actually having looked at her intently before he already had her features inked in his memory.
Her dark hair spread like ink onto the pillow, her form heaving up and down gently as she breathed. Lips slightly parted, she had a prominent cupid’s bow; her lips naturally a crimson shade. She had a straight nose, thick eyebrows and heavy lidded eyes. Even though they were now closed he could recall easily that she had amber eyes.
They were few years apart and he recalled how she’d always tell him she’d grow up propose to him when she was younger. He’d laugh, pat her head gently and tell her she’ll rethink her decision once she grows up. She’d stay unmoved, look at him firmly through her lashes and tell her he’d be the only person she’d ever love as long as she breathed. His breath would get hitched in his throat but he’d push it down and tell her she’d be free to do as she pleased when she grew up and the discussion would end there.
As he and Allison’s father did not get along well, he stopped presenting himself when they came over and would never visit them himself. So had actually not expected her to still like him when they actually grew up and had found someone else himself.
A slowly furrowing brow, then a corresponding grumble and she had turned to his side, still sleeping soundly.
If I had kept in touch with her, would she and I have had a happy ending? Would she be happy now? Or would she be fed up of me by now anyway?
He found himself wondering why she wasn’t fed up of him yet when all he gave her was distance and more distance. He had taken her hand so he could never let go but he’d let her walk out if she ever wished to.
He realized he had leaned in closer than before and his hand was hovering right by her hair on the pillowcase. With a gasp he pulled back. No, this was just wrong. She was sleeping and this was wrong in general. He could not touch Allison when he had still not managed to clear his head of...of her.
He got up to leave but a hand held him back. Allison had woken up. – Listen I can ex-
A tug and she was leading his hand back to her hair again. Their faces were close. Heat seeped through his skin, his heart raced and he felt a tug in his stomach. Her hair was soft.
‘I never provided any conditions to our marriage, remember?’
But
‘No, I agreed to yours but never said I’d apply them to myself too’ she grinned sleepily. Jake caught himself staring at his wife but could not pull away. He did not know why.- Still, you should be mad.
‘My crush, my husband wants to play with my hair. Why would I be mad?’ he felt his ears go warm at that.

I tried to trust him
I gave him everything
He gave me nothing
He treated me like shit
It took me months to get over him
I finally did
I was doing great
Then
I met him
He was amazing
He was sweet
He was kind
He was so funny
He’s perfect(ik I changed from past to resent tense)
We were just really close friends
Things were going amazingly
We talked everyday
Then something changed
I said something stupid
It messed everything up
I wanted to be more than friends
He didn’t
We tried not to let that change anything
But it did
He started responding less and less
To the point where it felt like he was ignoring me
Only responding a couple times a week
Then
He just stopped
My life came crashing down
I had lost my support beam
He is the reason I made iit through these last few hard months
He held. E up
when everything was going wrong
He was the only good thing I had
And now he’s gone
He will go on with his life like normal
I will need months to recover
Probably never trust anyone again
He doesn’t realize
How lucky he is
That I actually trusted him
But he threw it away
Along with my heart
I miss you Patrick
I’m sorry
This is all my fault
And now I have lost you



@cassandra8361

To the person who read this :

You are beautiful
You are amazing
You deserve everything you have
You deserve love

I know it's hard sometimes, but things would be dull if it was easy to have it
I know it's hard sometimes, but you have to keep fighting, to keep getting up every single time
And do you know why ?
Because one day, you will have it too.

The true love.
The one which makes you happier day by day
The one which makes you feel so sad and angry sometimes
The one which makes you feel the luckiest person on Earth
The one which makes you feel so alive
The one which you want it to never stop

I promise you.

Life can be rude sometimes, but it's just to make you love and enjoy even more every single happy moment.

I know that now you feel hurt, sad, empty or even depressed.
But you know what ?
Time is your best enemy but also your best friend.

I told you, you are amazing, and you deserve it.

All you have to do is to remember it every time life is rude with you.
And also remember this text when you will find the one with who you'll be for life, because you will find this person.

It's a promise.



(Sorry if my english is not perfect, I'm French :) )
