VERSE 1:
My efforts are all in vain
You don’t appreciate me
My love can’t sustain this game
I can’t continue to hide this pain
You don’t appreciate me
Just once acknowledge the little things…honey
Ohhh, I’m not trying to be mean…{but why}
Should someone else give me what I need?
I can’t turn your heart around (no matter how hard I try)
This situation’s got me down (But I’m not gonna cry)
Why can’t you appreciate (all the love I give?)
How much more love will it take (before you learn to give)
CHORUS:
You don’t appreciate…
You don’t appreciate…
You don’t appreciate…
All the love I give
You don’t appreciate…
You don’t appreciate…
You don’t appreciate…Me!!!
VERSE 2:
Your actions don’t impress me
You’re not the man you pretend to be
I gave too much of myself
You proved you couldn’t handle love’s wealth
Your actions speak loud and clear
I’m not so love struck that I can’t hear
Been living on hopes and dreams
It’s time that I face reality
I can’t turn your heart around (no matter how hard I try)
This situation’s got me down (But I’m not gonna cry)
Why can’t you appreciate (all the love I give?)
How much more love will it take (before you learn to give)
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
I deserve some gratitude
Why can’t I, at least, get that from you?
I gave too much of myself
I deserve some gratitude
Why can’t I, at least, get that from you?
You couldn’t handle love’s wealth
CHORUS
