How I loved u

Intro

Verse 1
It is two in the morning out on Maple Street
You keep your left hand resting on the driver door
I hesitate beside you in the other seat
A paper coffee cup is rolling on the floor
You do not want to turn the engine key anew
You say that nobody will ever understand you
You tell me that our friendship is completely true
I take a quiet breath and look directly at you

Verse 2
You tell me that you never ask someone to stay
You think that I was always happy being blind
I kept your coffee warm at seven every day
And listened to the worries tangled in your mind
You tell me that we never crossed into that space
You say that we were careful and it was too late
A little dashboard glow is showing on your face
And I will not keep quiet while we sit and wait

Chorus
Did you ever wonder how I knew?
Every word I ever said was true
What else could a boy like me now do?
This is only how I loved you

Instrumental Break

Verse 3
You told me love was never gonna have a start
You said that we would keep each other safe and clear
You did not know that you were breaking up my heart
Whenever you sat whispering so close and near
I listened to the warnings in the quiet night
I had your casual laughter spinning in my head
You said that walking solo had to be our right
Well I am telling you the truth inside tonight

Chorus
Did you ever wonder how I knew?
Every word I ever said was true
What else could a boy like me now do?
This is only how I loved you

Outro
Look at how this quiet feeling grew
This is only how I loved you
