Some songs don’t just tell a story—they make you feel it deep in your bones. “If That’s The Way You Feel” is one of those songs that perfectly captures the raw ache of watching love slip away, even when you’re not quite ready to let it go. It’s the kind of song that makes your chest tighten, because it’s not just about heartbreak—it’s about that helpless moment when you realize you can’t change someone’s mind.
From the very first line, this song carries a quiet kind of devastation. It doesn’t beg or plead; it just lays the truth bare—if that’s how you feel, then there’s nothing left to say. The lyrics cut through the heartache with an almost resigned acceptance, making it even more painful in its honesty. There’s no anger, no dramatic confrontation—just the slow, sinking feeling of love unraveling.
Whether you’ve lived through a moment like this or just fear the day you might, “If That’s The Way You Feel” hits home. It’s the soundtrack to every love that faded before its time, every goodbye that wasn’t easy but had to be said. And the beauty of the song? It doesn’t just dwell in the sorrow—it reminds us that sometimes, even when it hurts, we have to let go.
If you’ve ever held onto love just a little too long, this song understands you. And maybe, just maybe, that’s why it lingers long after the last note fades

Lyrics
I don’t blame you for I know you want him
That your love for me was never real
I could hold you but you’d be unhappy
But it’s all right if that’s the way you feel
I know that I will always go on caring
And my feelings, now, I must conceal
I still need you and I want you with me
But it’s all right if that’s the way you feel
I always knew someday I would lose you
When those lies about me were revealed
It’s plain to see, sweetheart, you believe them
But it’s all right if that’s the way you feel
I know that I will always go on caring
And my feelings, now, I must conceal
I still need you and I want you with me
But it’s all right if that’s the way you feel
But it’s all right if that’s the way you feel
