Song Lyrics

Well you stole my heart, and I'll get it back
But look me in the eye babe, tell me why you love me like that
Why ya love me like that oooh oh
Well I've walked this world, five times or more
And after all this walking babe, you still got me crawlin' on the floor
Crawlin' in the floor
And I know this world keeps on turning
Keeps me yearning

[Chorus]
How, can you turn and walk away
Pretending everything's okay?
How can you turn your back?
Tell me why you gonna love me like that
Why ya gonna love me like that ooh oh

Well I thought you'd listen
But I'm shattered like broken glass
Well I thought that we'd be different babe
Yea I thought that we would last, I thought that we would last
And I know, this world keeps on spinning
Every minute that your in it

[Chorus]

Love me or leave me baby but don't, lead me on
With loving like yours believe me I'm better off
I'm better off alone, ooh oh

Well I was your gypsy, throwing diamonds at your feet
Drifted 'round you like a satellite
Gave you everything you need, everything you need
And I know this world keeps on turning
Keeps me yearnin' and yearnin'

[Chorus]

How can you just break away?
Why can't you find the words to say
Love is something you work at
Tell me why ya love me like that,
Why ya love me like that

How can you throw us away? look at what you lost today
Now everything in shades of gray, and now your pushing me away
Say all the things you need to say, thought we were going all the way
Play all the games you want to play
Slowly we just fade away
