Why Dont'cha Luv Me [Like You Used To] lyrics

You're a thousand miles.

Can you be so far

if wherever I turn, baby, 

there you are?

I don't know anymore

if it's a loss of pride.

You say that you love me,

but I'm not sure I'm satisfied.

That's enough.

It's the same hands, baby,

but a stranger's touch

I don't know anymore if it is justified.

If you love me,

why do you do the things you do, 

you do, you do?

You don't touch me tenderly.

You don't call me anymore.

You don't see me misty-eyed.

Why don'tcha love me like you used to?

(Why don'tcha love me like you used to?)

I wish, I wish, I wish I knew.

Nobody ever said 

that we were faking it,

but somehow, baby,

it ain't making it anymore.

I'm no different than I used to be.

I know you too well 

and I know what I see.

Now, we could be lovers,

but could we be friends?

One thing: don't ever pretend.

Let me go before you break this heart.

Yeah, you love me,

So why do you do the things 

you do, you do, you do?

You don't touch me tenderly.

You don't call me anymore.

You don't see me misty-eyed.

Why don'tcha love me like you used to?

(Why don'tcha love me like you used to?)

I wish, I wish, I wish I knew.  

We could love each other like we used to

(love each other like we used to)

but you're not here anymore.

Why, why don'tcha love me?

Why?

You don't touch me.

You don't see me.

You don't want me.

I said why don'tcha love me like you used to?

(Why don'tcha love me like you used to?)  

Why don'tcha love me?

(Why don'tcha love me?)  

I said why don'tcha love me like you used to?

(Why don'tcha love me like you used to?)  

Why don'tcha love me?

You don't touch me tenderly.

You don't call me anymore.

You don't see me misty-eyed.

Why don'tcha love me like you used to?

(Why don'tcha love me like you used to?)

Why don'tcha love me?

(Why don'tcha love me?)  

I said why don'tcha love me like you used to?

(Why don'tcha love me like you used to?)  

Why?

So why, why, why don'tcha love me?

Why, why, why don'tcha love me?

Why, why, why don'tcha love me?

Why, why, why don'tcha love me?
