  • Didn't I do it for you?
    Why don't I do it for you?
    Why won't you do it for me?
    When all I do is for you?

    They want to see us, want to see us alone
    They want to see us, want to see us apart
    They want to see us, want to see us alone
    They want to see us, want to see us apart

    And I, just want to feel you're there
    And I don't want to have to share our love
    I try, but I get overwhelmed
    When you're gone I have no one to tell
    And I, just want to feel you're there
    And I don't want to have to share our love
    I try but I get overwhelmed
    All wrapped in cellophane, the feelings that we had

    And didn't I do it for you?
    Why don't I do it for you?
    Why won't you do it for me?
    When all I do is for you?
    And didn't I do it for you?
    Why won't I do it for you?
    Why won't you do it for me?
    When all I do is for you?

    But I, just want to feel you're there
    And I don't want to have to share our love
    I try but I get overwhelmed
    When you're gone, I have no one to tell

    They're waiting
    They're watching
    They're watching us
    They're hating
    They're waiting
    And hoping
    I'm not enough Writer/s: Jeff Kleinman, Michael Uzowuru, Tahliah Barnett
