Temperamental

Everything But The Girl

This temperamental side,

The one you say that you can't hide.

D' you ever see yourself -

The way it looks to someone else?

This temperamental trick,

The one you say you can't predict.

You're like an empty cup.

Forgive me if I don't wait up.

I don't get where you're coming from -

What is real and what's put on,

What has stayed and what has gone.

How long will this thing go on and on?



I don't want you to love me.

I don't want you to love me.



You're like an empty cup,

But I can't fill you up.

What planet are you on?

Not the same one I am from.

Do I just waste my time?

You pour your heart on mine.

You say it screws you up.

Forgive me if I don't wait up.

I don't get what you're trying to say -

What is wrong and what's okay.

You beat yourself up one more time.

You trample on this fierce heart of mine.



I don't want you to love me.

I don't want you to love me.



I don't know what you want from me.

All this endless sympathy.

You beat yourself up one more time.

You trample on this fierce heart of mine.



I don't want you to love me.

I don't want you to love me.
