| I sit and watch your flowers wilting in the kitchen
|
| I felt like I was one of them gasping for air.
|
| I go from room to room hoping to find your
|
| I play my music louder than you’d like me to
|
| Why can’t I be your lover?
|
| Can there be another?
|
| And when I feel without I want to get you in.
|
| Can’t I be your lover?
|
| At five o’clock you come shuffling in.
|
| And when I lock you out I want to get you,
|
| Get you, get you in.
|
| I understand that you are going through a hard time
|
| But what you need to recognize I’m in one too
|
| You say that maybe we should take some time apart
|
| But you go your way, I’ll get by, and you’ll go get high
|
| You just see if I mind.
|
| Why can’t I be your lover?
|
| Can there be another?
|
| And when I feel without I want to get you in.
|
| Why can’t I be your lover?
|
| At five o’clock you come shuffling in.
|
| And when I lock you out I want to get you,
|
| Let you, get you in.
|
| Well I could be wrong I don’t even know myself
|
| And I must be strong when you’re gone so long
|
| I don’t need to know reasons why.
|
| What I wouldn’t do for you.
|
| Why can’t I be your lover?
|
| Can there be another?
|
| And when I feel without I want to get you in.
|
| Why can’t I be your lover?
|
| At five o’clock you come shuffling in.
|
| And when I lock you out I want to get you,
|
| Let you, get you in.
|
| I want to get you in. |
