[Verse]

And so I'm thinking to myself, girl I need you
There ain't a price that you could pay, to make me
leave you
I'll get you anything and everything, to please you
I'm standing outside of your window, just to see you
You grab my heart, and smash it, down to the floor
Then you, you say you want me,
Then it's "leave me alone".
And so I'm, asking myself if I did something wrong
'Cause you yellin, cusin', fusin', now you hanging up
the phone

[Bridge]

I say I love you once
I say I love you twice
Imma be outside your house
I'll stay up all night
I'll show you this good time girl,
To show you how I feel
How I feel

[Chorus]

Why do you build me up?
Buttercup, baby, just to let me down
And then mess me around, and then worst of all
You never call baby when you say you will
But I love you still, I need you (I need you)
More than anyone darling, you know that I have from the start
So build me up, buttercup don't break my heart

[Verse]

Well, I'm reminissing on them things we've done been through
Like that time you threw that brick through my window
I swear if I got her that time I could of lynched you
Couple of hours later I wanted to hug, love, and kiss you
You said you can't take it no more
But you didn't walk out of that door
You said you've changed but you're fusin' and fighting everywhere that we go
I laugh in public, everyone watching like a reality show
Well, it don't matter no more, because you know I
can't let you go

[Bridge]

I say I love you once
I say I love you twice
Imma be outside your house
I'll stay up all night
I'll show you this good time girl,
To show you how I feel
How I feel

[Chorus]

Why do you build me up?
Buttercup, baby, just to let me down
And then mess me around, and then worst of all
You never call baby when you say you will
But I love you still, I need you (I need you)
More than anyone darling, you know that I have from
the start
So build me up, buttercup don't break my heart

[Verse]

All the fellas in the house, if you're not too proud
Look your woman in the face and tell her right now
I need you
I need you
I need you
I need you
Baby,
I need you
I need you
I need you
All the ladies in the house, if you're not too proud,
Won't you look your man in the face and tell him right
now
I need you
I need you
I need you
I need you
Baby,
I need you
I need you
I need you

[Chorus]

Why do you build me up?
Buttercup, baby, just to let me down
And then mess me around, and then worst of all
You never call baby when you say you will
But I love you still, I need you (I need you)
More than anyone darling, you know that I have from the start
So build me up, buttercup don't break my heart

Don't break my heart
I need you
I need you
I need you
I need you
I need you
I need you
