Didn’t I Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Through sunny days and stormy nights
Our relationship seemed quite alright
Was I blind? Was I deaf?
I should've known before you left
I stuck it out, I did my part
Must you see my mind and heart?

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm spinning in circles, this happened so fast
I won't hold you back, I just want to ask

[Chorus]
Didn't I tell you I love you?
Didn't I say I'd be true?
Didn't I promise I'd be there
And do anything for you?
Didn't I stand by you in the dark
And carried you when you fell
I thought you knew that I loved you
How is it you couldn't tell?

[Verse 2]
It's over now, at least I guess
And I'm alone and in a mess
Where was I when you were down?
I always thought you'd be around
I missed your call along the line
I guess I figured we were fine

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm spinning in circles, this happened so fast
I won't hold you back, I just want to ask

[Chorus]
Didn't I tell you I love you?
Didn't I say I'd be true?
Didn't I promise I'd be there
And do anything for you?
Didn't I stand by you in the dark
And carried you when you fell
I thought you knew that I loved you
How is it you couldn't tell?

[Bridge]
I need to explain everything I've been holding inside for so long
I need you by my side, I don't want you to go
And that's why I'm singing this song

[Chorus]
Didn't I tell you I love you?
Didn't I say I'd be true?
Didn't I promise I'd be there
And do anything for you?
Didn't I stand by you in the dark
And carried you when you fell
I thought you knew that I loved you
How is it you couldn't tell?

About

I have to blame OneRepublic for this song. They texted me early about their new song called “Didn’t I”, and since the lyrics weren’t released yet I started writing the chorus myself in my head. It just seemed like such a predictable thing to name a song. After enough consideration I decided to complete it and get it up here before the real one is out, just for fun.

Someone messed up somewhere in this relationship, but the particulars of who’s in the wrong are left up to us. It seems everything they gave just wasn’t enough.
