Cover art for First Love lyrics by Adele

The tone of this song is soooo perfect! I went through the same thing... It's hard to stay in a relationship when you feel like there is nothing left, regardless how much you love the person, you're just not in love with the person anymore. She doesn't want to hurt him but it's the only thing she can do. Why drag it on further when it's not going anywhere? She wants to stay but doesn't want to drag this on any further because she knows it will only hurt him more in the end. It's one of those things where you wished you felt differently for someone but you know really cant. She's being true to herself and doing what's best regardless how much it hurts her to do this... The background music and her voice is what makes this song so perfect! She lays it all out on how she feels about this person but in the most gentle, straight forward way possible...it's like you can hear the sorrow in her voice for breaking someone's heart...
