lyrics

He calls you in the morning,
he wants to hear your voice.
He calls you in the evening,
He'd like to buy you dinner.

You think he's such a sweet guy
you're always on his mind
He's got the words that
make you melt
You fall for him in no time.

He calls you at midnight
he hopes you're dreaming of him.
He calls you at work
Hey, you wanna buy a house?

And so you move in with him,
and everything is great
You love each other,
but your heart
starts asking nagging questions

Like what do you do when the words for love
just mean "I want! I want!"
What do you do when the words for love
just mean "Gimme what I want!"

He calls you Sweetheart
he hopes you'll bake him a cake.
He calls you Love
he wants your sex

He calls you Baby,
he wants you to look up to him.
He calls you Dear
maybe you'll clean the house

So what do you do when the words for love
just mean "Do this, do that!"
What do you do when the words for love
just mean "I'll love you if you do what I want!"

He calls you, yeah, he calls you,
but does he stop to hear?
You've learned his language,
learned to give
It's time for a new lesson.

He calls you his sweet darlin'
But you know whose you are.

So call it like it is
And tell him that you're leavin'

'Cause never in the world should the words for love
just mean "I want, I want!"
You'll find another guy whose words for love
will mean just what he says!
