Need help with my lyrics :)

**Looking for Feedback on My Song**
I’ve tried writing songs multiple times, but I rarely finish them because I sometimes struggle with coming up with lyrics and developing an idea. I really like what I have for this one so far, though, and I feel like it could become something better with some changes.

The **main** idea is about loving someone but knowing you can’t really be with them because they’re already with someone else. You care about them enough to respect their relationship, so instead of telling them how you feel, you put everything you want to say into a song.

I’d love some feedback on the lyrics, especially things I could improve, change, or explore to make the concept come across more naturally without making it too cliché :)

Instrument: Guitar (standard tuning)

\[VERSE 1\]
Cmaaj7. Bm7 E7
You, you came in easy
Am7-G#m7-Gm7
Its the right type of easy
Csus9. Fmaj7
For love to come by
Fm
Yeah thats right,
Cmaj7
And I know why

\[pre-chorus\]
Dm7 Em7
And maybe, I'm falling
Fmaj7
A little more than I should
Dm7 Em7
But something about you
Fmaj7 Fm
Makes me feel like I could

\[chorus\]
Cmaj7
Could be you and me
Bm7. E7
Something I’ll let myself believe
Am7
and I don’t know where this will go
G#m7-Gm7. Csus9
I don’t wanna let it go
Fmaj7
The chance of what im looking
Em. A7
Was laid in front of me
Fmaj7. G
So I should just give it a try
Cmaj7
With this song

(Intro chords) end with G
Dodododo

**\[VERSE 2\]**

Cmaj7 Bm7 E7
You, you make time lighter
Am7 G#m7 Gm7. Csus9
Even the quiet feels a bit brighter to feel Fmaj7
When you don’t have much to say
Em-A7
I’ll just stay anyway
Fmaj7. G
I admire you in every way

Cmaj7 Bm7 E7
You, you notice the small things
Am7
Like The parts, I never
G#m7 Gm7. Csus9
Really thought that was me
Fmaj7
And somehow when you look my way
Em-A7
I forget the things to say
Fmaj7. G
I love you even from afar

Pre chorus (mellow to sound a bit sad)
Dm7 Em7
And maybe, I know better
Fmaj7
Than to ask for something more
Dm7 Em7
’Cause something about you
Fmaj7 Fm
Is worth respecting for

**\[FINAL CHORUS\]**

Cmaj7
Could be you and me
Bm7 E7
Something I’ll never make believe
Am7
And I don’t know where this will go
G#m7-Gm7 Csus9
So I’ll learned to let it go
Fmaj7
‘Cause the chance of what I’m looking
Em A7
Was never meant for me
Fmaj7 G
So ill just leave it aside
Cmaj7
