I Didn’t Mean To Play You

Lyrics:

Verse 1
I sat down just to clear my head,
no song in mind, no words unsaid.
Just keys beneath my tired hands,
just time I didn’t plan.

Then somehow you
walked in again…

You…
walked in again…

Verse 2
I tell myself it’s nothing much,
just a face, a night, a touch.
But my fingers don’t agree,
they keep playing you to me.

Pre-Chorus
I don’t know why you stayed this long,
you never did a thing wrong.
You never crossed a single line—
you just don’t leave my mind.

Chorus
I didn’t mean to play you,
I didn’t mean to stay.
You were just one moment
that won’t go away.
I don’t know your story,
I don’t know your truth,
but somehow every note
still sounds like you.

Verse 3
The room is quiet, it’s just me,
and something I don’t want to see.
That sometimes nothing happening
is still enough to mean.

I try another melody,
but it always bends back here—
to the way you looked at me
like I wasn’t supposed to care.

Pre-Chorus
I laugh it off, I say I’m fine,
say it was just the wine.
But every time I close my eyes,
you’re already inside.

Final Chorus
I didn’t mean to play you,
this wasn’t in my plan.
But you became the reason
this song began.
I don’t need your name or truth—
I just needed something real.
And now the piano knows
exactly how I feel.
