Called you on the phone today
Just to ask you how you are
All I did was speak normallySomehow, I still struck a nerve
You got me fucked up in the head, boy
Never doubted myself so much
Like, am I pretty? Am I fun, boy?
I hate that I give you power over that kind of stuff
′Cause it's always one step forward and three steps back
I′m the love of your life until I make you mad
It's always one step forward and three steps back
Do you love me, want me, hate me?
Boy, I don't understand
No, I don′t understand
And maybe, in some masochistic way
I kinda find it all excitin′
Like, which lover will I get today?
Will you walk me to the door or send me home crying?
It's one step forward and three steps back
I′m the love of your life until I make you mad
It's always one step forward and three steps back
Do you love me, want me, hate me?
Boy, I don′t understand
No, it's back and forth, did I say something wrong?
It′s back and forth, going over everything I said
It's back and forth, did I do something wrong?
It's back and forth, maybe this is all your fault instead
It′s one step forward and three steps back
And I′d leave you, but the roller-coaster's all I′ve ever had
Yeah, it's one step forward and three steps back
Do you love me, want me, hate me?
Boy, I don′t understand
No, I don't understand
