Lyrics

Why did it feel so right?
The way her smile hit me that night
I didn’t mean to fall that hard
But something in me dropped my guard
I told her what I felt was true
And still she said, “I can’t love you”
No lies, no blame — just quiet pain

I know I’m not the easiest to love
But I gave her all I was proud of
Still, I’m the one left in the dark
Trying to rebuild this shattered heart

Je t'aime, mon trèfle à quatre feuilles — and she knows it now
But her heart just won’t allow
Thanks God for the ache, the fire that burned
If this was a lesson, well — lesson learned
I’ll never be the same, that’s just the cost
When you give your soul and still get lost
Je t'aime, mon trèfle à quatre feuilles — a love so pure
But not every love can find its cure

I don’t hate her — how could I?
She lit my world with just one eye
But love like mine comes at a price
Now there’s a grave where hope once lived its life
She never asked for all I gave
She just stood still — and I misbehaved
With a heart that ran too far, too brave

They say time heals, but that’s not real
When the wound’s too deep to even feel
If this was fate, it played me wrong
Made me believe I somehow belonged
She didn’t choose me — and that’s okay
But I still miss her every day

Je t'aime, mon trèfle à quatre feuilles — and I always will
Even if this love stands still
Thanks God for the nights I couldn’t sleep
For every moment that cut me deep
I’ll never love someone quite that way
And maybe that’s the price I pay
Je t'aime, mon trèfle à quatre feuilles — and that’s the truth
Some love ends in broken youth

I’m tired of being the sweet, kind man
It never goes the way I planned
I’m not the one girls write about
Just the guy who loves too loud
She stayed honest, I stayed blind
Hoping someday her heart might find
What mine was screaming all the time

Je t'aime, mon trèfle à quatre feuilles — and she’ll never know
How deep my love was meant to grow
But thanks God for the burn, the lessons learned
For every corner that love turned
I’ll never be the same, no, not again
She was my start… and now my end
Je t'aime, mon trèfle à quatre feuilles —
But it died… before it had the time

So here I stand, just a shell of me
With a heart that won’t ever be free
She was my lesson — deep and burned
And now I know…
Lesson learned.
