Intro

I'm not such a good lover, I'm a better talker

So when you touch me there, I'm scared that you'll see

Not the way that I don't love you, but the way that I don't love myself

 And there are things these days that can help you through a phase

Like food and health and fear; I prefer the beer

Not the way that I don't love you, but the way that I hate myself

 Oh, when the cityscape is borne from the ocean floor

 It speaks its native tongue, physical, subliminal

Not the way that I left you cold, but the way that you left yourself

When the moon falls from the earth

And the sun, it fills its girth

And I know we'll go hard at the night, oh, hard at the night

But still the sun will not hide our fight, oh hide our fight

 Oh, I laugh a lot, but that's just a plot

I found a way to make the night stay

Not the way that I don't love you, but the way that I hate myself

It was Oprah, on the TV show - she told me so

It was Oprah, on the TV show - she told me so

Not the way that I don't love you, but the way that I love myself
