I Don't Wanna Love Somebody Else

A Great Big World · Is There Anybody Out There? [2014]

Oh, I built a world around you

Oh, you had me in a dream,

I lived in every word you said

The stars had aligned

I thought that I found you

And I don't wanna love somebody else



Oh, we left it all unspoken

Oh, we buried it alive

and now it's screaming in my head

Oh, I shouldn't go on hoping

Oh, that you will change your mind

and one day we could start again

Well I don't care if loneliness kills me

I don't wanna love somebody else



Oh, I thought that I could change you

Oh, I thought that we would be the greatest story that I tell

I know that it's time to tell you it's over

But I don't wanna love somebody else
