Name: Loving You Ain't Fun Anymore
Duration: P00H03M40S
Description: An acoustic-driven heart-break song for those who have been gaslit by the ones they thought they loved. I had an ex who was cruel and calculating and eroded my self-esteem so subtly that I didn’t even know it was happening. I lost so much of myself in that relationship, I didn’t even feel like me anymore. My friends and family could see I was unhappy, but I didn't have the strength to leave.

about

An acoustic-driven heart-break song for those who have been gaslit by the ones they thought they loved. I had an ex who was cruel and calculating and eroded my self-esteem so subtly that I didn’t even know it was happening. I lost so much of myself in that relationship, I didn’t even feel like me anymore. My friends and family could see I was unhappy, but I didn't have the strength to leave.

lyrics

When I first laid my eyes on you, it was love at first sight,
You charmed your way into my heart in a way I couldn’t fight
Oh I remember when
On your love I could depend
But loving you ain’t fun anymore

I thought you were the one for me and together we’d grow old,
But you stripped me of my dignity like something to be sold
You took away my pride
Slowly emptied me inside
And loving you ain’t fun anymore

I can’t believe I was so blind
I let you poison my mind
My bags are packed and I am gone
I’m headed back where I belong
I’ve no more tears to cry
So it’s time I said goodbye
‘Cause loving you ain’t fun anymore

My friends and family told me that you were no good for me
And I was headed for disaster it was plain to see
I wish I heard back then
Now my heart cannot pretend
Now loving you ain’t fun anymore

Now I’m sitting here all alone with a bottle in my hand
Reflecting on all that remains of all my future plans
But I will survive
Now I’m free, I’m free to thrive
‘Cause loving you ain’t fun anymore
