Lyrics
She never says the little things that make me warmer
She doesn't express affection through small gestures that bring comfort.
Unless she wants things to go her way
She only expresses herself when she wants things to go her way.
Cause time and time again I've tried to leave her
Despite numerous attempts to end the relationship, she does things to prevent him from leaving.
And she does just enough to make me stay
She performs just enough actions to convince him to stay in the relationship.
She never says the loving words I need to hear
She withholds affectionate words, causing emotional pain because she knows what to say.
And it hurts because she knows the words to say
Despite knowing the words that could comfort, she chooses not to say them.
When she hears me cleaning out my drawers and closet
When he's preparing to leave by packing, she finally expresses comforting words.
She says just enough to make me stay
Her words are strategic, only coming when he's on the verge of leaving, making him reconsider.
Sometimes I wonder how I've stayed this long
Reflecting on why he stayed in the relationship for so long.
Like a fool I keep hanging round for more
Despite feeling like a fool, he continues to stay for more.
When she acts like I'm already gone
She acts distant as if the relationship has already ended.
Until I start to walk out the door then like before
Her behavior changes when he attempts to leave, repeating a cycle of convincing him to stay.
She never gives me the love she knows I'm needing
She doesn't provide the love he needs, despite understanding his increasing need for it.
And she knows I need it more and more each day
His need for love grows, and she is aware of it, yet she doesn't fulfill that need.
And when she sees I can't take it any longer
When he reaches a breaking point, she finally offers enough to make him continue the relationship.
She gives me just enough to make me stay
Her actions are reactive, responding only when he can't endure the situation any longer.
Just enough to make me stay
She consistently provides only the minimum to prevent him from leaving, never fully meeting his emotional needs.
