A heartfelt exploration of unrequited love, this song delves into the emotional turmoil of longing for someone who doesn't feel the same. With poignant lyrics and a melodic flow, Drake captures the essence of heartache and the bittersweet nature of love that remains unreturned.
Verse 1:
I see you from afar, wish you could see me too,
All the late nights talking, all the dreams we never knew.
Got my heart wide open, but you just walk on by,
Pretending like you don’t know, never asking why.
Chorus:
Unrequited love, it’s a heavy price to pay,
Every sit and stare, just wishing you could stay.
Caught in my feels, but you don’t feel the same,
Guess I’m just a player in this unplayed game.
Verse 2:
Late texts left unread, catching feelings I can’t shake,
Built a castle in my mind, but it’s all for nothing’s sake.
You’re my sun, my moon, and every star above,
But no matter how I try, it’s just unrequited love.
Chorus:
Unrequited love, it’s a heavy price to pay,
Every sit and stare, just wishing you could stay.
Caught in my feels, but you don’t feel the same,
Guess I’m just a player in this unplayed game.
Bridge:
Late night drives, wondering how we could’ve been,
Talking to myself, like a lover and a friend.
I’ll keep my distance, even though it’s hard to do,
Living in a dream when I’m still in love with you.
Chorus:
Unrequited love, it’s a heavy price to pay,
Every sit and stare, just wishing you could stay.
Caught in my feels, but you don’t feel the same,
Guess I’m just a player in this unplayed game.
Outro:
So here I stand, with my heart on my sleeve,
Waiting for a chance, or maybe just to grieve.
In this story of mine, I’ll keep writing your name,
In this world of unrequited love, forever the same.
