Stuck
Stacie Orrico Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can't get out of bed today or get you off my mind
I just can't seem to find a way to leave the love behind
I ain't trippin', I'm just missin' you
You know what I'm sayin', you know what I mean
You kept me hangin' on a string
Why you make me cry?
I tried to give you everything, but you just give me lies
I ain't trippin', I'm just missin' you
You know what I'm sayin', you know what I mean, yeah




Every now and then, when I'm all alone
I've been wishin' you would call me on the telephone
Say you want me back, but you never do
I feel like such a fool, there's nothing I can do
I'm such a fool for you

I can't take it
What am I waiting for?
My heart's still breakin'
I miss you even more
And I can't fake it
The way I could before
I hate you, but I love you
I can't stop thinkin' of you
It's true, I'm stuck on you

Now love's a broken record that's been skippin' in my head
I keep singing yesterday
Why we got to play these games we play?
I ain't trippin', I'm just missin' you
You know what I'm sayin', you know what I mean

Every now and then, when I'm all alone
I've been wishin' you would call me on the telephone
Say you want me back, but you never do
I feel like such a fool

I can't take it
What am I waiting for?
My heart's still breakin'
I miss you even more
And I can't fake it
The way I could before
I hate you, but I love you
I can't stop thinkin' of you
It's true, I'm stuck on you

You
Yeah

Every now and then, when I'm all alone
I've been wishin' you would call me on the telephone
Say you want me back, but you never do
I feel like such a fool, there's nothing I can do
I'm such a fool for you

I can't take it
What am I waiting for?
My heart's still breakin'
I miss you even more
And I can't fake it
The way I could before
I hate you, but I love you
I can't stop thinkin' of you
I hate you, but I love you
I can't stop thinkin' of you
Don't know what to do
I'm stuck on you
