If It’s Not Mine

"I watched for signs; In every conversation. Turned every kindness, Into confirmation"

If It’s Not Mine Lyrics

Verse 1

I prayed your name

Like Heaven had sent me

Held onto dreams

Like they were already written

I watched for signs

In every conversation

Turned every kindness

Into confirmation

I wanted so badly

To believe it was true

That God was opening a door

Leading me to you

But standing here now

With nowhere left to hide

I think I loved the hope

More than the reality inside

Chorus

If it's not mine

Then why'd I hold it so tight?

Why'd I lose sleep

Talking to Heaven all night?

Why'd I build a future

You never asked me to build?

Why'd I call it faith

When maybe it was just my will?

You didn't lie

You didn't lead me on

But I kept waiting

For a song that never came on

And now the hardest truth

I've ever had to find

Is sometimes love isn't enough

If you're not chosen in return

And if it's not mine

I have to let it die

Verse 2

I wanted certainty

You gave me honesty

I wanted forever

You gave me what you could

You listened

You stayed kind

And somehow that made it harder

To leave behind

Because villains are easy

But good men are not

Especially when they never promised

What you thought

Bridge

So here I sit

No angels singing

No answers falling from the sky

Just me

And the quiet realization

That wanting something

Doesn't make it yours

That praying harder

Doesn't make a door open

That loving someone

Doesn't make them choose you

Outro

So I'll stop calling this destiny

And call it what it was

A hope

A dream

A possibility

That never became a promise

And maybe tomorrow

My heart will understand

What my mind already knows

If it's not mine

I don't want it anymore
