Tell me lies, like how you’re better off without me
While the truth is written all over your face
Even in photographs together you look lonely, lonely
When you were here, you never had to fake
And girl I promise I’m not gonna bother you anymore
Soon as you hang up the phone
I just got one question that you might not be ready for
But I really gotta know
Does it feel, feel like you’re never gon’ find nothing better?
Does it feel, feel like you’re missing, ’cause I loved you different?
And the way that you can say you don’t remember
How I kept you coming over every night
And the way that you can say you never wondered, wondered
If loving someone else is just a lie
Whoa, girl I promise I’m not gonna bother you anymore
Soon as you hang up the phone (Don’t hang up the phone)
I just got one question that you might not be ready for
But I really gotta know
Does it feel, feel like you’re never gon’ find nothing better?
Does it feel, feel like you’re missing, ’cause I loved you different?
Does it feel, feel like you’re never gon’ find nothing better?
Does it feel, feel like you’re missing, ’cause I loved you different?
And girl, I promise I’m not gonna bother you anymore
Soon as you hang up the phone
I just got one question that you might not be ready for
But I really gotta know
Does it feel, feel like you’re never gon’ find nothing better?
Does it feel, feel like you’re missing, ’cause I loved you different?
Does it feel, feel like you’re never gon’ find nothing better?
Does it feel, feel like you’re missing, ’cause I loved you different?
Unraveling Heartache and Honesty in “Does It Feel”
Charlie Puth’s “Does It Feel” captures the raw vulnerability that follows a breakup. The lyrics delve into the complex emotions of longing and introspection, as the narrator confronts their ex with a single burning question: does being apart truly feel better? The repetition of “Does it feel, feel like you’re never gon’ find nothing better?” is both a confession and a challenge, suggesting that the love they shared was unique and irreplaceable. Puth masterfully juxtaposes the facade of moving on with the inescapable truth reflected in photographs and memories. The song’s conversational tone and direct questions invite listeners to reflect on their own experiences with lost love and unresolved feelings.
