why don't you love me? lyrics

Why am I lonely?
You're sitting right here
Why am I talkin'?
It's like I'm talkin' to the air
What am I lookin' for?
That just isn't there
Why am I angry
And how did it get so bad?
And why am I missin'
What we never really had?

And 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

And 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?

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?

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?
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 cannot know why
(Why don't you feel things?)
Can you talk to me, baby?
(Why don't you love me?)
Can you tell me why?
(Why don't you feel things?)
Why am I lonely?
(Why don't you love me?)
When you're sitting right there
(Why don't you feel things?)
