Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Ex
Ex
Ex
Ex
[Verse 2]
I never thought that we would break up for the better
Should've never made the promises to each other
So many things I should've said that you didn't know
Coming in from a past with a heavy load
[Verse 3]
But I knew that you were a good man
Give me love, you were faithful, it showed on my hand
I know there are questions in your mind you don't understand
Through the words of this song, I wanna answer them
[Verse 4]
Honesty (Check)
Conversation (Check)
A shoulder I can lean on anytime I'm feeling stressed (Check)
Good loving (Yes)
The perfect soldier (Yes)
Was about to say "I do," when I know it wasn't meant
So I
[Verse 5]
Search in my mind, trying to figure it out
And thought I was happy but I'm having some doubts
Think I found the answer and I know I must confess
I'm still in love with my ex
And I wasn't ready when I said that I loved you
And in my heart, I know that I gotta tell you
I shouldn't have gone from a situation to the next
I'm still in love with my ex
[Verse 6]
Every moment that I stayed, I dug a deeper hole
I was with you but my heart wouldn't let him go
All my family told me, "Kelly, he's the one for you"
I know your family love me and I love them too
[Verse 7]
(I'm so sorry) I'm so sorry for the pain that I put you through
But you shouldn't have to suffer 'cause I'm confused
So much for looking forward to future plans
Lost the love of my life and I lost a friend
[Verse 8]
Good to me (Yes)
Security (Yes)
You were all the things I wanted
Checking everything (Check, check)
You were comforting (Yes)
Romantic man (Yes)
How could I have said "I do"
When I knew it wasn't meant?
So I
[Verse 9]
Search in my mind, trying to figure it out
And thought I was happy, but I'm having some doubts
Think I found the answer and I know I must confess
I'm still in love with my ex
And I wasn't ready when I said that I loved you
And in my heart, I know that I gotta tell you
I shouldn't have gone from one situation to the next
I'm still in love with my ex
[Verse 10]
Silence, I've gotta own this
I can't believe I'm saying this
Saying sorry's the hardest part
[Verse 11]
Search in my mind, trying to figure it out
And thought I was happy but I'm having some doubts
Think I found the answer and I know I must confess
I'm still in love with my ex
And I wasn't ready when I said that I loved you
And in my heart, I know that I gotta tell you
I shouldn't have gone from one situation to the next
I'm still in love with my ex
[Verse 12]
Search in my mind, trying to figure it out
And thought I was happy, but I'm having some doubts
Think I found the answer and I know I must confess
I'm still in love with my ex
And I wasn't ready when I said that I loved you
And in my heart, I know that I gotta tell you
I shouldn't have gone from one situation to the next
I'm still in love with my ex
