Cake - Never There lyrics

I need your arms around me, i need to feel your touch I need your understanding, i need your love so much You tell me that you love me so, you tell me that you care But when i need you baby, you're never there On the phone long, long distance Always through such strong resistance First you say you're too busy I wonder if you even miss me Never there You're never there You're never, ever, ever, ever there A golden bird that flies away, a candle's fickle flame To think i held you yesterday, your love was just a game A golden bird that flies away, a candle's fickle flame To think i held you yesterday, your love was just a game You tell me that you love me so, you tell me that you care But when i need you baby Take the time to get to know me If you want me why can't you just show me We're always on this roller coaster If you want me why can't you get closer? Never there You're never there You're never ever ever ever there
