Lyrics
Why Do You Even Say That?
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Why do you even say that, say we'll meet somewhere?
You hardly ever show up, you don't really care.
So why do you even say that, say you got time for me?
You talk but you don't walk, busy as a bee.
I don't think you're all that happy, honey baby, with your thing,
But I ain't some fish you caught, can't keep me on a string.
You say you really love me, then you're gone in seconds flat,
Say you really want me, why do you even say that?
Why do you even say that?
Why do you even say that?
