Only when I look into your eyes
My senses ignite
I feel alive
I was waiting for an answer
Like a feather falling
From the sky

You don't want to belong to me
'Cause freedom feels better
Then I could give
You love inadequately
But you steal hearts like mine
Perfectly

Why you gotta be—
Why you gotta be my unrequited love, unrequited love
Why can't our love be—
Why can't our love be possible?

For as long as I can remember
Like oil and water
We collide
But you don't seem to want forever
This adventure
Was only real to my eyes

You don't want to listen to me
'Cause freedom sounds better
And I can see you love inadequately
But you steal hearts like mine
Perfectly

Why you gotta be—
Why you gotta be my unrequited love, unrequited love
Why can't our love be—
Why can't our love be possible?

You're a man with excuses
'Cause we've had something real
But it was only what I feel alone
Oh, you're a man with your muses
Always wanting something new
And I was just someone that you could use

Why you gotta be—
Why you gotta be my unrequited love, unrequited love
Why can't our love be—
Why can't our love be possible?
