Lyrics

I Don’t Know What You Want From Me

[Intro]

Mm, mm

[Verse 1]

I don't know what you want from me

Quit hovering, I don't like the way you cling

My greatest desire has only ever been peace

[Chorus]

See, I'd rather be up a tree

In the middle of the big black sea

Out of reach

Anywhere free

Than be needed like you need me

[Verse 2]

I don't know what you want from me

I take a step and you close the space between

I led you to the water and you left me nothing to drink

[Chorus]

See, I'd rather be up a tree

In the middle of the big black sеa

Out of reach

Anywhere free

Than bе needed like you need me

See, I'd rather be up a tree

In the middle of the big black sea

Out of reach

Anywhere free

Than be needed like you need me
