Lyrics

I'm guessin' that my basic needs were too much for you (hello? Hmm, hmm)

I believe that my fundamental emotional and relational requirements were overwhelming for you.

A conversation too much to ask?

Is having a meaningful conversation too much to expect from you?

But somehow I get bare minimum in all you do

Despite my expectations, I receive the bare minimum effort and attention from you.

Baby, how ironic is that?

Isn't it ironic that I get so little when I expected more?


Tell me, how's the hell's this supposed to work?

How is this relationship supposed to function?

You know damn well you should always put me first

You are aware that prioritizing me should be a constant.

I expect you go to the ends of earth

I anticipate you to go to great lengths for our relationship.

But I'm not even askin' for that

However, I'm not even asking for extreme measures.

I just wanted some understandin'

All I wanted was some understanding from you.


I'm guessin' that my basic needs were too much for you

I assume that my basic emotional and relational needs were too much for you.

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah

(Repetition) It seems overwhelming for you.

Too much for you

(Repetition) It appears overwhelming for you.

I'm guessin' that my basic needs were too much for you

I think my basic needs were too much for you.

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah

(Repetition) It appears overwhelming for you.

Too much for you

(Repetition) It seems overwhelming for you.


I'm guessing that maybe you fell out of love with me

I assume that perhaps you no longer love me.

Don't worry, baby, 'cause so did I

Don't worry because I've also fallen out of love with you.

The thought of dependin' on you is just crazy

The idea of depending on you seems irrational and impossible.

There's no way that I would've survived

I wouldn't have survived if I relied on you.


So, tell me, how's the hell's this supposed to work?

How is this relationship supposed to function?

You know damn well you should always put me first

You are aware that prioritizing me should be a constant.

I expect you go to the ends of earth

I anticipate you to go to great lengths for our relationship.

But I wasn't even askin' for that

But I wasn't even asking for extreme measures.

I just wanted some understandin'

All I wanted was some understanding from you.


I'm guessin' that my basic needs were too much for you

I assume that my basic emotional and relational needs were too much for you.

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah

(Repetition) It seems overwhelming for you.

Too much for you

(Repetition) It appears overwhelming for you.

I'm guessin' that my basic needs were too much for you

I think my basic needs were too much for you.

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah

(Repetition) It appears overwhelming for you.

Too much for you

(Repetition) It seems overwhelming for you.

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah, ah
