why don't we Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah

Sitting on the stairs
You're standing by the front door
I don't even remember what we were fighting for
Tryin' to cut the tension
But you blow it with your sentence
And I just wanna end it every time

You just take me to the edge
You pull me back again
You're messin' with my head
You-you

Don't matter what you do
Don't matter what you say
I'm lyin' here with you
And baby, I can't stay
You say you're done with me
I swear that I'm done too
And then I try to leave
But baby I just can't stay mad at you

Mad at you
Mad at you
Oh baby, I just can't stay mad

In the morning when we wake up (wake up)
After another fake break up (break up, ooh-ooh)
I don't even remember what we were fighting for
We're always laughing
With some crying in between but
Girl, our love is tangled up between the sheets (okay)
(Sheets, oh)

You just take me to the edge
You pull me back again
You're messin' with my head
You-you

Don't matter what you do
Don't matter what you say (you say)
I'm lyin' here with you
And baby, I can't stay (yeah, yeah, yeah)
You say you're done with me (done with me)
I swear that I'm done too
And then I try to leave (then I try to leave)
But baby, I just can't stay mad at you

Mad at you (mad at you)
Mad at you
Oh baby, I just can't stay mad at you (stay mad at you)
Mad at you
Mad at you (you)
Oh baby, I just can't stay mad

You just take me to the edge
You pull me back again (pull me back)
You're messin' with my head, yeah
You-you
You just leave me in the dark
You whisper where you are (where you are, where you are)
You're messin' up my heart (oh)
Yeah, you

Don't matter what you do
Don't matter what you say
I'm lyin' here with you
But baby, I just can't stay mad at you

Mad at you
Mad at you
Oh baby, I just can't stay mad at you (you)
Mad at you




Mad at you
Baby, I just can't stay mad
