Owen Duff - The Ballad of What and Nothing Lyrics

My heart was broken when we met
I think I thought if I made love a choice
I'd be safe from pain
Not falling head over heels
I would choose how to feel
And I'd not get hurt again
And you were sweet and kind and curious
And I loved spending time with you
You were young yes
But you had your own unique point of view
And I liked
Having you by my side
But then it came to having to decide
And things started to slide
I tried my hardest to choose you
You became my best friend
I didn't want to lose you
But I always had that question running through my head
Is this enough
And is it love that I'm feeling
Is it enough and is it love that I'm feeling
It's a shortcoming I'm all to aware of
That I try to keep every door open wide
I'm so terrified of losing
The things I'm not choosing
That I just can't decide
And so the more you pressured me to commit
The more I resisted you
I felt trapped you felt rejected
All our feelings were valid and true
And I'd no clue
How to make things right
I didn't know what to do
I didn't know what to do
I tried my hardest to choose you
You became my best friend
I didn't want to lose you
But I always had that question running through my head
Is this enough
And is it love that I'm feeling
Is it enough and is it love that I'm feeling
Did I drag you into my confusion
All I ever wanted was to love and be loved in return
But I don't know how love works
I don't know how it works
But I didn't want this hurt
I wanted it to work
What a shame
What a waste
To have lost all the good things
