Straight in Your Face

If you were more like I wanted you to be
I would find this easy
I would pass you with flying colors and stars so big
That they’d be blinding folk for miles
And they would all be smiling walking about
'cause I’d finally figured you out
If you were more like I wanted you to be
This might be too easy
They might all go accuse me of cheating these certificates of love
Don’t you see
That I’m not finding this easy?
Don’t you see
What you’re doing to me?
This could all be easier, easier than what it is right now
The words I wanna hear are all but birds flying south
The words I wanna hear aren’t coming out your mouth
'cause I’ve been looking
Am I looking in the wrong place?
I’ve been looking straight in your face
I’ve been looking straight in your face
I didn’t turn out to be the lover that you wanted me to be
So let’s just take things easy
And fuck the confines of this precarious liaison up against the nearest wall
Don’t you see no one finds this shit easy?
Don’t you see what this is doing to me?
This could all be easier, easier than what it is right now
The words I wanna hear are all but birds flying south
The words I wanna hear aren’t coming out your mouth
'cause I’ve been looking
Am I looking in the wrong place?
I’ve been looking straight in your face
I’ve been looking straight in your face
This could all be easier, easier than what it is right now
The words I wanna hear are all but birds flying south
The words I wanna hear aren’t coming out your mouth
Am I looking in the wrong place?
Am I looking in the wrong place?
Am I looking in the wrong place?
Am I looking in the wrong place?
Am I looking in the wrong place?
Am I looking in the wrong place?
Am I looking in the wrong place?
Am I looking in the wrong place?
Have I been looking in the wrong place?
Have I been looking in the wrong place?
Have I been looking in the wrong place?
Have I been looking in the wrong place?
Am I looking in the wrong place?
Have I been looking in the wrong place?
I’ve been looking straight in your face
I’ve been looking straight in your face
