First

VERSE ONE:
What we had was special
When I wasn't being dumb
It wasn't superficial and it wasn't just for fun
We were infatuated
Our hearts were saturated
Who would've thought we could end?

CHORUS:
But you're not that special, darling
You were only my first
And if you see my hands are curling into fists
I'll show you what's worse
than loving and
not being loved
It's being loved and then left to sleep alone
I don't need you anymore
I wish I meant that

VERSE TWO:
You have moved on
Now it's my turn
I can't believe that I've learned close to nothing now
I thought we were meant to be
You are still the only one I see with me for eternity

CHORUS:
But you're not that special, darling
You were only my first
And if you see my hands are curling into fists
I'll show you what's worse
than loving and
not being loved
It's being loved and then left to sleep alone
I don't need you anymore
I wish I meant that

BRIDGE:
Take me back to
That
Time
That little millisecond when you were mine
I want you here
I want you nearer to my soul

CHORUS:
You really are special darling, you're my first
If you see that I'm crying, I'll show you what's worse
Than loving you
And not being loved
It's being loved and left to die alone
You know that I still need you
You know that I still need you
I'll never not need you again
I'm yours

I love this. It is beautiful and very honest. I love how the song transitions in the end from trying to be strong to admitting that you are lost without this person. It is heartbreaking but it is just so real and that is what I like most about it. Sometimes if we are lucky love will make us stronger than we have ever been but on the other side of that it tear us down to our weakest points just as quickly. Great write!
