Why Don't You Touch Me
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.
I've been feeling way too undesired
Before the flame went out, all around us was all on fire
I can feel the distance go for miles
But cold is all you are, and it's causing chills
What's with all this?
You won't even talk about it
Can you be honest?
Is you just running out of thrills?
'Cause every time you put me second, yeah
Girl, make me feel wanted
Don't leave me out here unfulfilled
'Cause we're slowly getting disconnected, yeah
If you still in love all like you say it
Then why don't you touch me? Yeah
I'm dressing to the nines and your eye's straying
Oh, why don't you touch me? Yeah
Why don't, why don't, why don't, yeah, yeah
It's been so hard to stay close
If there's a problem, say so
Tell me why you never touch me no more
Maybe I've been too possessive
Maybe I get too aggressive
Maybe 'cause I bring up what we should've deaded
Hard to be real, but don't deny what you can't feel, girl
Maybe I just need attention
Maybe I'm not new enough to stay in love and so it's ending
Tell me it ain't ending, babe
If you still in love all like you say it
Then why don't you touch me? Yeah
I'm dressing to the nines and your eye's straying
Girl, why don't you touch me? Yeah
Why don't, why don't, why don't, yeah, yeah
Can you be honest?
Is you just running out of thrills?
'Cause every time you put me second, yeah
Girl, make me feel wanted
Don't leave me out here unfulfilled
'Cause we're slowly getting disconnected, yeah
If you still in love all like you say it
Then why don't you touch me? Yeah
I'm dressing to the nines and your eye's straying
Oh, why don't you touch me? Yeah
Why don't, why don't, why don't, yeah, yeah
You say I'm thinking too hard on this
But I don't feel your love, no
