Jeff

Jeff, you were my first love, right from the start

I don't know why you came back just to play with my heart

You step into my life, then you pull away

Leaving me confused by the games that you play

My chest aches heavy every time that you leave

You treat me like I don't matter, and it's hard to breathe

'Cause all I ever wanted was for you to love me

To pull me in close and put nothing above me

I wish you wanted me as much as I want you

To be your partner, to see this through

No matter how many times you break me in two

I will always love you

I look at our daughter and I see what we could be

The family she deserves, just you and her and me

I want to be your safe space, your partner and your light

But you keep pulling back and fading in the night

All I want is to be close, to finally be seen

Instead of caught up in the spaces in between

'Cause all I ever wanted was for you to love me

To pull me in close and put nothing above me

I wish you wanted me as much as I want you

To be your partner, to see this through

No matter how many times you break me in two

I will always love you

I don't understand why you keep coming around

Just to lift my hopes up and then tear them down

But no matter the tears, no matter the pain

My heart is yours, and the truth won't change

You're my first love, Jeff, I can't walk away

I just keep praying that you'll finally stay

All I ever wanted was for you to love me

To pull me in close and put nothing above me

I wish you wanted me as much as I want you

To be your partner, to see this through

No matter how many times you break my heart in two

Jeff, I will always love you
