There's so much heartache in the world today
So why do you feel the need to pull away?
I got someone who wants to show me love
He tells me every day I have his heart

But that's not what I want
It's not what I dream of, no
Because something tells me
We should be together, be together
I know you hear me
And we should be together
Start being clever
And tell me

Why don't you love me like the other boys do?
Why can't you call me up, why isn't it you?
Why don't you love me like the other boys do?
Like the other boys do, like the other boys do?

Like the other boys
Like the other boys

My heart, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts for you
Cause my head won't stop
Can't stop thinkin' of you
And somethin' tells me
We should be together, be together
So tell me

Why don't you love me like the other boys do?
Why can't you call me up, why isn't it you?
Why don't you love me like the other boys do?
Like the other boys do, like the other boys do?

Why don't you love me like the other boys do?
Why can't you call when you know I want you?
Why don't you love me like the other boys do?
Like the other boys do, like the other boys do?

Like the other boys
Like the other boys
Like the other boys
Like the other boys

Why don't you love me like the other boys do?
Why can't you call me up, why isn't it you?
Why don't you love me like the other boys do?
Like the other boys do, like the other boys do?

Why don't you love me like the other boys do?
Why can't you want when you know I want you?
Why don't you love me like the other boys do?
Like the other boys do, like the other boys do?
