why am i lonely
you\'re sittin\' right here
why am i talkin\'
it\'s like i\'m talkin\' to the air
and what am i lookin\' for
it just isn\'t there

and why am i angry
and how\'d it get so bad
why am i missin\'
what we never really had

chorus:
why don\'t you love me the way i love you
and why don\'t you feel things as deep as i do
we\'ve got a fundamental difference
in matters of emotion
but i need to feel you need me like a river needs an ocean
baby why don\'t you love me

who am i kiddin\' baby
it wasn\'t meant to be
but you wanted a believer
and i needed to believe
for every wall you built around you
i learned a brand new way to climb
and if i could\'ve been your angel
i would\'ve found a way to fly

chorus

i don\'t understand you
what\'s it take to make you cry
and if leavin\' you don\'t break you
then baby what\'s it matter why

chorus
why don\'t you love me
why don\'t you love me
can you tell me why
why don\'t you feel things
can you tell me why, baby
why don\'t you love me
i\'ve gotta know why, oh
why don\'t you feel things
can you talk to me baby
why don\'t you love me
and tell me why
why don\'t you feel things
why am i lonely
why don\'t you love me
i\'m sittin right here
why don\'t you feel things
