Must be that you want me
so much that you don’t have the words.
Keep me far from friends and family,
baby, that’s just one of your quirks.
And if distance makes you fonder,
I’m flattered by the distance you seek.
Yeh, you know just how to thrill me,
oh honey, how you trick me…
You have such a funny way of sayin’ “I love you,”
forgettin’ me more every day,
it gets me every time.
When I call you, but you’re not replyin’,
oh, I’m sure you’re busy cuz you’re tryin’
to show me I’m the girl you long for every day –
you have such a funny way.
My sweater from the night we met,
how sweet that you’re returning it.
Oh, what a lovely sentiment,
you said, “don’t contact me again.”
And what a strange coincidence,
your grandma died and died again
and I would send condolences
if one of my phone calls would just go through.
Thrill me in many ways you do,
my baby..
You have such a funny way of sayin’ “I love you.”
Forgettin’ me more every day,
it gets me every time.
When I call you, but you’re not replyin’,
oh, I’m sure you’re busy cuz you’re tryin’
to show me I’m the girl you long for every day –
you have such a funny way.
It’s funny you’re with friends, it’s
funny I’m at home,
funny everybody knows something that I don’t.
Funny how I do this every single time,
so funny that I have to laugh
just so I don’t cry,
just so I don’t cry…
You have such a funny way of sayin’ “I love you,”
you have such a funny way,
you have such a funny way…
