[Spoken word] So we're really doing this today, Heavy? You said I could have the night off. I'm sick of this shit. Fine I'll do it... Ok here goes. [verse] There are a lot things I can accept from you Like smiles from across the room Or sexy text at noon Or something simple like I can't wait to see you soon [verse] I can come to grips With your out of town trips With your boys As you gawk at your toys And I won't impose on you Rules to follow As I swallow My fears and desires [per-chorus] These feelings are acceptable I know how they make you feel But I can't understand your Face right now [orchestral bridge] [tuba] [trumpet] [strings] [chorus] Loving you is a requirement A task I'll do until my retirement A job I'll perform with Admiration and joy Loving you is my paradise Loving you is life Loving you is the way Not loving you is not a thing that exists To me Loving you Loving you But Not Loving you is unacceptable [harmonica solo] [verse] Do you feel the same I don't think you do Because if you did we wouldn't be putting on this show And I know I can be a bit much at times but this just might be the straw that breaks this camel's back [spoken word] So what is it going to be? Am I alone Or are you still here with me I dunno I'm confused [bridge] I feel broken I feel used I feel unseen And unheard And this isn't what I deserve [chorus] Loving you is a requirement A task I'll do until my retirement A job I'll perform with Admiration and joy Loving you is enjoyable Loving you is life Loving you is the way Not loving you is not a thing that exists To me Loving you Loving you But Not Loving you is unacceptable (unacceptable)
