"If I Loved You Less" lyrics
You got me thinking 'bout forever
And it ain't like me
I've always been the kind to leave
'Fore things get deep
Now I'm stuck between running
And staying, and praying
You're just not another mistake
In the making
Wouldn't be staring at my phone
Rewriting words I shoulda known
Wouldn't be scared of holding on
If I loved you less, I wouldn't be falling slow
If I didn't want you back, then I would just let you go
I wouldn't be second-guessing with every step I take
I wouldn't be wondering if my heart was built to break
No, it ain't the fall that scares me, it's the crash at the end
It ain't your burden to carry, it's all in my head
Oh, it ain't the love that haunts me, it's the fear in my chest
Oh, I know that I would be fine if I just loved you less
I ain't scared of the fall, I'm
I'm just scared of the crash, I'm
I'm scared of giving you my all, and
And not getting none of it back, I
I ain't scared of you my darling
I'm just scared of being forgotten
And no, I ain't scared of jumping
Terrified of what's at the bottom
You got me thinking twice
Not running when it all feels right
I swore I wouldn't fall again
But you've got me slipping in
If I loved you less, I wouldn't be falling slow
If I didn't want you back, then I would just let you go
I wouldn't be second-guessing with every step I take
I wouldn't be wondering if my heart was built to break
No, it ain't the fall that scares me, it's the crash at the end
It ain't your burden to carry, it's all in my head
Oh, it ain't the love that haunts me, it's the fear in my chest
Oh, I know that I would be fine if I just loved you less
Loved you less, loved you less
Loved you less, loved you less
If I loved you less, I wouldn't be falling slow
If I didn't want you back, then I would just let you go
I wouldn't be second-guessing with every step I take
I wouldn't be wondering if my heart was built to break
No, it ain't the fall that scares me, it's the crash at the end
It ain't your burden to carry, it's all in my head
Oh, it ain't the love that haunts me, it's the fear in my chest
Oh, I know that I would be fine if I just loved you less
And it ain't like me
I've always been the kind to leave
'Fore things get deep
Now I'm stuck between running
And staying, and praying
You're just not another mistake
In the making
Wouldn't be staring at my phone
Rewriting words I shoulda known
Wouldn't be scared of holding on
If I loved you less, I wouldn't be falling slow
If I didn't want you back, then I would just let you go
I wouldn't be second-guessing with every step I take
I wouldn't be wondering if my heart was built to break
No, it ain't the fall that scares me, it's the crash at the end
It ain't your burden to carry, it's all in my head
Oh, it ain't the love that haunts me, it's the fear in my chest
Oh, I know that I would be fine if I just loved you less
I ain't scared of the fall, I'm
I'm just scared of the crash, I'm
I'm scared of giving you my all, and
And not getting none of it back, I
I ain't scared of you my darling
I'm just scared of being forgotten
And no, I ain't scared of jumping
Terrified of what's at the bottom
You got me thinking twice
Not running when it all feels right
I swore I wouldn't fall again
But you've got me slipping in
If I loved you less, I wouldn't be falling slow
If I didn't want you back, then I would just let you go
I wouldn't be second-guessing with every step I take
I wouldn't be wondering if my heart was built to break
No, it ain't the fall that scares me, it's the crash at the end
It ain't your burden to carry, it's all in my head
Oh, it ain't the love that haunts me, it's the fear in my chest
Oh, I know that I would be fine if I just loved you less
Loved you less, loved you less
Loved you less, loved you less
If I loved you less, I wouldn't be falling slow
If I didn't want you back, then I would just let you go
I wouldn't be second-guessing with every step I take
I wouldn't be wondering if my heart was built to break
No, it ain't the fall that scares me, it's the crash at the end
It ain't your burden to carry, it's all in my head
Oh, it ain't the love that haunts me, it's the fear in my chest
Oh, I know that I would be fine if I just loved you less
