I said please don't do that
But he does.
I told him our life could be
So much better if he didn't
But he does.
He said he didn't know
Why it bothered me,
But he does.
I tell myself he wouldn't
When he knows I'll get mad,
But he does.
Maybe he just doesn't get the gravity
Part, what goes up must come down,
But he does.
Finally I give up
I don't know what to do,
But he does.
I can't understand
Why he loves me,
But he does.
