You Never Do
I've seen that face before with eyes ignoring me
And I've heard those promises of things I'd never see
And I can almost smell your bitter cold remarks though your mouth is closed
And I can almost taste your titers cold and dark from your crinkled nose
I think you want me, but you never do
And I think you want me, but you never do
And I pretend that you're going to call, but you never do
And I pretend that you care at all, but you never do
I am a flower bed and you are trampling boots
I am white satin socks and you are tar and sut
If I'm the warmth that ushers in the spring, you are the crimpling cold
If I'm the breeze that freshens bread and things, your heat brings down dew mold.
You say you love me, but you never do,
And you say you love me, but you never do
And I imagine that you're going to give, but you never give
And I imagine what a life that we could live, but we never live
I pray to God above but he did not know what I meant,
Cuz I asked for my own true love and you was what he sent
And so I prayed to the god below and he heard me clear and true
Because I asked him what would hell be like, and I wound up here with you
And so I pretend that you'll grow and go far, but you just don't grow
And you pretend that you know who you are, but you just know.
You say you love me, but you never do
And I think you want me, but you never do
And I pretend that you're going to call, but you never do
And I pretend that you care at all, but you never do
Yaahhi, Yaahii. What's wrong with you?
Yaahhi, Yaahii. What's wrong with you?
I think you want me, but you never do
You say you love me, but you never do
And I've heard those promises of things I'd never see
And I can almost smell your bitter cold remarks though your mouth is closed
And I can almost taste your titers cold and dark from your crinkled nose
I think you want me, but you never do
And I think you want me, but you never do
And I pretend that you're going to call, but you never do
And I pretend that you care at all, but you never do
I am a flower bed and you are trampling boots
I am white satin socks and you are tar and sut
If I'm the warmth that ushers in the spring, you are the crimpling cold
If I'm the breeze that freshens bread and things, your heat brings down dew mold.
You say you love me, but you never do,
And you say you love me, but you never do
And I imagine that you're going to give, but you never give
And I imagine what a life that we could live, but we never live
I pray to God above but he did not know what I meant,
Cuz I asked for my own true love and you was what he sent
And so I prayed to the god below and he heard me clear and true
Because I asked him what would hell be like, and I wound up here with you
And so I pretend that you'll grow and go far, but you just don't grow
And you pretend that you know who you are, but you just know.
You say you love me, but you never do
And I think you want me, but you never do
And I pretend that you're going to call, but you never do
And I pretend that you care at all, but you never do
Yaahhi, Yaahii. What's wrong with you?
Yaahhi, Yaahii. What's wrong with you?
I think you want me, but you never do
You say you love me, but you never do
