lyrics

You Don’t Write

By Jake Dalton

You don’t write
You don’t call
You don’t do anything at all
‘Cept tell me that you love me
In a perfunctory
Way

It ain’t right
I’m not wrong
We can’t say what’s goin’ on
My frustration
Is not on your wave
Length

It ain’t right
I can’t feel
I wonder what is the deal
Do you really love me?
Or am I thinkin’
Crazy

I need to be asleep
I need to be sedated
I needed to be down deep
I need to be berated
I need to feel Passion
I need to feel lovin’
You are not getting
The whole thing about touching

It ain’t right
I’m not deep
I’m just lookin’ for some relief
Show me that you love me
Morning, noon and
Night

You don’t write
You don’t call
You don’t do anything at all
‘Cept tell me that you love me
In a perfunctory
Way
Tell me that you love me
In a perfunctory
Way
Tell me that you love me
In a perfunctory
Way
