Stephen Lyrics by Brayton Bowman

Here | Now

0

[Verse 1]
Dear Stephen, I hope you hear this one day
And recognize my voice as the one that you let slip away
And Stephen, I hope that six months down the road
You think you made the right choice loving someone else before yourself

[Pre-Chorus]
Now, Stephen, I thought of you today and smiled
'Cause for the first time in a while
I remembered what it felt like when you kissed me
Stephen, I don't have that much more to say
So before my words get in my way
Let me clear my throat and tell you that

[Chorus]
A part of me will always care
For whoever you grow up to be
There's a part of you that I'm dying to hold on to
'Cause I used to love you more than me

[Verse 2]
Dear Stephen, I hope that you had fun ripping out the page
That had me in it, and the pictures of us from our yesterday
Stephen, I had a dream that you never ran away
You were still mine and you were finna stay

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Stephen, I thought of you today and smiled
'Cause for the first time in a while
I remembered what your bottom lip tasted like
Stephen, I don't have that much more to say
So before my words get in my way
Let me clear my throat and tell you that

[Chorus]
A part of me will always care
For whoever you grow up to be
There's a part of you that I'm dying to hold on to
'Cause I used to love you more than me

[Post-Chorus]
I'll be sending you love every day
And I don't feel no type of way
'Cause I used to love you more than me

[Interlude]
Stephen, I keep a card you wrote me addressed to "my love"
And I think that was half our battle
You were never in love with me, you were in love with who you wanted me to be
Stephen, I thank you so much for trying to fix me
But I never asked you for that
I needed you to love me while I fixed myself
But instead, Stephen, you stomped us out like a lit cigarette on the carpet, babe
And I would have let the whole fucking building burn down

[Pre-Chorus 3]
Dear Stephen, I hope you hear this one day, think of me and smile
'Cause for the first time in a while
Stephen, you remember what it felt like making love to me
I'm sorry that I couldn't be everything you needed
Stephen, there is in fact much more to say
So, before my words get in my way
Let me clear my throat and tell you that

[Chorus]
A part of me will always care
For whoever you grow up to be
There's a part of you that I'm dying to hold on to
'Cause I used to love you more than me

[Post-Chorus]
I'll be sending you love every day
And I don't feel no type of way
'Cause I used to love you more than me
