I can never win with you
I try but you don't let me through
What's the point in fighting when we're down?
I know I've been acting strange
But wait don't leave I know I'll change
We're wasting all our time together now
Chorus
I don't know what to say
Every word just makes you turn away
And I don't know what to do
Every day I want to be with you
Well I've lost the battle and I'm losing the war
And I keep on asking myself what for
If you believe in fate and destiny
Then open your eyes and believe in me
I call up and apologize
But you just think its one big lie
Don't you know you're pushing me away?
We've been through so much together
You can't tell me the past will never
Mean a thing it's more than a memory
Chorus
Cause everyone I see around
Tells me that I'm such a fool
For making you my punching bag
When things really weren't that bad
I've lost you now
I've lost you now
But I don't know how to get you back
I'm not myself
I'm not myself
I've gotta get us back on track
I don't know what to say
Every word just makes you turn away
And I don't know what to do
Every day I want to be with you
Well I've lost the battle and I'm losing the war
And I keep on asking myself what for
If you believe in fate and destiny
Then open your eyes and believe in me
You don't know what's right anymore
You think your love is just a score
Are you too young or afraid to grow up?
You can work this out if you both try
It's hard to cheat but harder to lie
Is this what you want or just a passing thought?
Maybe you should think about it
Before you go and break her heart
Maybe you need more time to decide
Ask yourself "what for?
What for, what for, what for?"
You painted a picture she wanted to see
You can laugh this one off but it's not funny
She's given you everything she has
Oh oh
Maybe you should think about it
Before you go and break her heart
Maybe you need more time to decide
Ask yourself, "what for?
What for, what for, what for?"
You wanted her and you got her
But you're still so careless with your words
If you let her go, she'll move on
Find someone, she's never coming back
How can you live with that?
Maybe you should think about it
Before you go and break her heart
Maybe you need more time to decide
So you should think about it some more
Ask yourself, "what for?"
(I know it sounds like the same old line)
What for?
(I know it seems like the same old guy)
What for?
(Maybe I don't know how to treat you right)
What for?
(Maybe you'll meet someone to know your life)
What for?
(You said I lied since the day we met)
What for?
(But I meant every word I said)
What for?
(Someday you'll miss every single day we spent)
What for?
I've done it all, dear
The games that lovers play
I've had them both, dear
The good times and the bad
Save all your lies for some other guy
(Chorus)
Tell me you love me
It's all I wanna hear
Tell me you love me
It's all I wanna hear from you
Tell me soon
You want it all, dear
A life of fairy tales
You had it all, dear
I can't give you anymore
But I know what you need me to say
(Chorus)
Tell me you love me
It's all I wanna hear
Tell me you love me
It's all I wanna hear from you
Tell me soon
Tell me
I've done it all, dear
The games that lovers play
I've had them both, dear
The good times and the bad
Save all your lies for some other guy
Tell me you love me
It's all I wanna hear
Tell me you love me
It's all I wanna hear
Tell me you love me
It's all I wanna hear
Come on and tell me, baby
Tell me you love me
Tell me you love me
Tell me soon
Tell me soon
