Intro
Just read what I'm writing and you'll understand
Just read what I'm writing and you'll understand
For there were days, there were nights and it's soon turning into years
Just read what I'm writing and you'll understand
Verse 1
I gave you everything
There's nothing left
You were more of a taker
You made demand after demand
Day by day, took the last of what I have
Everything that happened, that's on you
Not on us and not on me
I believed everything you said
That everything's fine
I was the only one for you
You slept with one, no, it was two
One was my friend who I've had ever since we were little
The other was someone, I don't know who, and I never asked
I didn't even take it hard
Prechorus 1
Now you want me
Wanna please me, get me back
You wanna lie in my bed and get undressed
Take your clothes, get your things
I'll never take you back
Chorus 1
This is a love letter to you
Who never loved, who never loved
This is a love letter to you
Who never loved, who never loved
Verse 2
My love for you is like irony
If you cry because of me I don't give a sh*t
And that you say you miss me
Didn't you say you hate me?
Because I gave and I gave and I gave
I just let you take, just take, just take
But got nothing back
Everything you did was wrong
Nothing you did was clean
And I played along
Prechorus 2
Maybe you think this sh*t will turn around
Believe me when I say that it's not happening
Believe me when I say that it's not us
After all our time that's what I feel
And now we're over
I'm writing letters 'cause I want to, not 'cause I have to
That I loved you, I regret it
You'll never catch me
Chorus 2
This is a love letter to you
Who never loved, who never loved
This is a love letter to you
Who never loved, who never loved
Bridge 1
Sorry, sorry, that it turned out like it did
You thought you were right, and I meant it wrong
You probably wanna know what the problem is
I don't care about your reality
'Cause I live in a fantasy
Where I don't take your sh*t, but you take mine
I know I'm seen as
But f*ck it, you should've said something
Let myself be seduced, hate to feel
Shutting off thoughts, I don't wanna hear
Don't wanna hurt, you think I want you to hurt me?
Nagging about love, love hates me
Prechorus 3
So delete our pictures
Because pictures turn into memories
Because memories turn into wounds
Because pain turns into years
Chorus 3
This is a love letter to you
Who never loved, who never loved
This is a love letter to you
Who never loved, who never loved
Outro
Just read what I'm writing and you'll understand
Just read what I'm writing and you'll understand
Because there were days, there were nights
And it's soon turning into years
Just read what I'm writing and you'll understand

ångraregret

Ångra means to 'regret' or 'repent'. It's a powerful and emotionally charged verb that perfectly encapsulates the raw feelings expressed in this song.

In the lyrics, the artist sings, "Att jag älskat dig, ångra mig" (That I loved you, I regret it). This line reveals a deep sense of remorse and heartbreak, making ångra a key word for understanding the song's theme of a love gone wrong and the pain of looking back.

Don't let the title fool you! While "Kärleksbrev" translates to "Love Letter" in English, this song by the Swedish group Hov1 is anything but sweet. It's actually a powerful and sarcastic final goodbye to a toxic ex. The singer lays out all his frustrations from a one-sided relationship where he gave everything but only received demands and heartbreak in return.

The song reveals the ultimate betrayal: his ex cheated on him with two people, and one of them was his childhood best friend. Now, she wants him back, but he's completely done. He calls this song a "love letter" to someone who "has never loved," using irony to express his pain and newfound strength. It's a declaration that he's moving on, deleting the memories, and will never take her back.
