Lyrics

(Verse 1)
It kinda feels like I will never change,
Maybe old habits build stronger chains.
No amount of apologies will ever mend
The damage my past actions made.
You could be right when you said I would never grow,
I kept on hurting you and dimming your glow.
I just sat here today,
Reminiscing about all the things I took for granted.
If I had a chance to go back to when we were lovebirds,
I would rewrite the story with loyalty in every word.
(Chorus)
But I seemingly haven’t learned my lessons yet,
I’m being loved so deeply every day by my new girlfriend,
Still looking for you in everyone, I still flirt.
I still love you, I guess,
but that’s what killed our bond back then—
Such obsession with memories of my ex.
I wonder why I\'m always this discontent
(Verse 2)
Sometimes I feel you’re the one I need, at least,
But I separated you from the most meaningful relationships.
Wasn’t intentional acts of selfishness;
I guess I never just learned to be happy and content.
You almost gave me the benefit of the doubt, another chance,
But just for a moment, I blew everything up.
At one point or another, when and if you get the chance,
I want you to remember I miss the young, naïve, dumb, crazy us.
(Bridge)
This is my love letter to my past,
Waking up to a nostalgic romance.
I hope your man keeps you well;
I know you could also have someone else—
Someone you wonder about, what it could’ve been if you’d last.
I know I’m not the one,
But trust me, be happy with the very one already in your arms.
You made your own mistakes that you\'ve now you’ve past,
Healed from it all and got your stars aligned.
(Chorus)
But I seemingly haven’t learned my lessons yet,
I’m being loved so deeply every day by my new girlfriend,
Still looking for you in everyone, I still flirt.
I still love you, I guess,
but that’s what killed our bond back then—
Such obsession with memories of my ex.
I wonder why I\'m always this discontent
(Outro)
From MacGifted, now to a grown man,
All I want to tell you is I’m glad I met you at that time
When I needed to learn from a beautiful young love.
This is my love letter to the past,
A bittersweet reminder that some things aren’t meant to last.
(Chorus)
But I seemingly haven’t learned my lessons yet,
I’m being loved so deeply every day by my new girlfriend,
Still looking for you in everyone, I still flirt.
I still love you, I guess,
but that’s what killed our bond back then—
Such obsession with memories of my ex.
I wonder why I\'m always this discontent
(Outro)
I’m still the same Gift that you vowed to forget,
I\'m so sorry even when I know it\'s too late.
You were right this toxic nostalgia really lasts,
Much has changed since we last pitched a glance.
I wrote these lyrics on your birthday just to say hi,
A quiet whisper to the past and a soft goodbye,
to the future we couldn’t keep alive.
But I seemingly haven’t learned my lessons yet,
Still looking for you in everyone else I meet.
