Why Can't You
You say you like me
want to be with me
are you speaking the truth?
Do you really want me?
Deep inside i don't think you do
only cause your actions don't match your words
who would want to be with someone like that?
why won't you just try to openly care for me
i understand i am not the world's loveliest person
nor the earth's most delightful creature
though i do have beautiful qualities
why can't you just love me for what i have?
My heart is slowly breaking deep within
with every word you speak to me
i slowly rebuild my thoughts
trying to solve the puzzle you are
i understand i am not the world's loveliest person
nor the earth's most delightful creature
though i do have beautiful qualities
why can't you just love me for what i have?
saying we'll be together these four years
is all talk no truth hidden beneath those poorly spoken words
someday you'll realize how much i want to be with you
no need for materialistic things
simply the knowledge that you care for me is enough
ooh oohh
i don't care where i am whether it's cruising through the desert
or getting killed in afghanistan
listen to my desperate plea
i don't care where i am as long as i'm with you
