[Verse 1]
You ask me why I cry sometimes,
like there’s a reason I can name.
I try to laugh it off too fast,
I blame the heat, I blame the drain.
It starts in the shower, always there,
water loud, my throat too tight.
I press my palm against the tile
and count to two, then lose the count.
[Pre-Chorus]
I used to map my little life
in pencil marks and tidy lines.
Then you tucked my hair behind my ear,
and something changed in me.
[Chorus]
I think I’m in love with you,
and you won’t love me back.
I think I’m in love with you,
and that’s the simple fact.
So love and I just learned to hurt,
then smile, and stay polite.
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
We had that song, the one we swore
we’d never play for anyone.
Two voices in a cheap old car,
two shadows on the dashboard sun.
We grew up telling everything,
no locked doors, no careful truths,
but suddenly I had a secret
I couldn’t say to you.
[Pre-Chorus]
I learned your love in smaller ways,
and none of it was mine.
It followed me through crowded rooms,
stayed on my tongue, sweet-bitter wine.
[Chorus]
I think I’m in love with you,
and you won’t love me back.
I think I’m in love with you,
and that’s the simple fact.
So love and I just learned to hurt,
then smile, and stay polite.
[Bridge]
You didn’t move. I watched my hands.
The room went still as Sunday light.
I said it, and the air stayed kind,
and that was all your quiet reply.
[Final Chorus]
I think I’m in love with you,
and you won’t love me back.
I think I’m in love with you,
and that’s the simple fact.
So love and I just learned to hurt,
then smile, and stay polite.
