Lyrics Dwight Yoakam

Dwight Yoakam

I Want You to Want Me

Well, I want you to want me.

Yeah, I need you to need me.

I'd love you to love me.

Hey, I'm beggin' you to beg me.

Yeah, I want you to want me.

I need you to need me.

Yeah, I'd love you to love me.

I'll shine up the old brown shoes,

Put on a brand new shirt.

I'll get home early from work

If you'll say that you love me.

Oh, didn't I, didn't I,

Didn't I see you cryin'?

Oh, didn't I, didn't I,

Didn't I hear you cryin'?

Feelin' all alone without a friend,

You know you feel like dyin'.

Oh, didn't I, didn't I,

Didn't I hear you cryin'?

Well, I want you to want me.

Yeah, I need you to need me.

I'd love you to love me.

Hey, I'm beggin' you to beg me.

I'll shine up the old brown shoes,

Put on a brand new shirt.

I'll get home early from work

If you'll say that you love me.

Oh, didn't I, didn't I,

Didn't I see you cryin'?

Oh, didn't I, didn't I,

Didn't I hear you cryin'?

Yep, feelin' all alone without a friend,

You know you feel like dyin'.

Oh, didn't I, didn't I,

Didn't I hear you cryin'?

[Instrumental]

I'll shine up the old brown shoes,

Put on a brand new shirt.

I'll get home early from work

If you'll say that you love me.

Oh, didn't I, didn't I,

Didn't I see you cryin'?

Oh, didn't I, didn't I,

Didn't I hear you cryin'?

Yep, feelin' all alone without friend,

You know you feel like dyin'.

Oh, didn't I, didn't I,

Didn't I hear you cryin'?

Well, I want you to want me.

Yeah, I need you to need me.

I'd love you to love me.

Whoa, I want you to want me.
