[Chorus]

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?


[Refrain]

They wanna see us, wanna see us alone

They wanna see us, wanna see us apart

They wanna see us, wanna see us alone

They wanna see us, wanna see us apart


[Verse]

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


[Chorus]

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?


[Reprise]

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


[Outro]

They're waiting

They're watching

They’re watching us

They're hating

They're waiting

And hoping

I'm not enough
