What's to like?
Plump but dried out like a woman
That's been around too long
What's to like?
I'm nothing in the face of you.
I've been in wanting
In waiting
Of your love too long
I've had it
I've lost it
Same same same old song.
What's to love?
In me, I'm so unloveable,
So emotional, full of
Dreams that will never
Come true.
What's to love?
I'm nothing in the face ofyou.
You're the person I wanted
Wanted to collect
And put on my mantle next
To the others I've known
They're nothing in the face of you.
I've loved and lost and loved again
Loved a man much more than I am
Ambitious, but just the same
I made you fall in love too.
Baby, I've known it, I've lived this before,
But I'm nothing in the face of you.
