You say you need excitement in your life That I am just a sweater that you wear from time to time Excitement leads to heartache leads to strife While sweaters keep you warm against the coldness of the world What do you get each time you say goodbye When the indifference of tomorrow is the hatred of today Should I break down or should I dare to try When you're so quiet, so quiet, so God damn quiet He don't know you like I know you He can't see you like I do Yet he don't want you like I want you He don't need you like I do I bet he's never known the ways of love You say it doesn't matter anymore The way I felt but never said, the way you said you felt
My feelings for you burden like a chore Tomorrows always go too fast, but yesterday's too soon What do you get each time you say goodbye When the indifference of tomorrow is the hatred of today Should I break down or should I dare to try When you're so quiet, so quiet, so God damn quiet He don't know you like I know you He can't see you like I do Yet he don't want you like I want you He don't need you like I do Yet he don't love you like I love you He can't see you like I do I bet he's never known the ways of love I'll swear he's never known the ways of love
