Justin Taylor - Not The Way Lyrics

Not the Way (you're looking back at me)

House is light the same it was today
Clothes all fit and flung around the same old way
Funny how the heart can change the way you see
But it's not the way you're looking back at me

Greeting others makes you smile more than me
Hearing others call you brings more joy than me
Other lovers seem to gaze so magically
But it's not the way you're looking back at me

Chorus:
You ask to leave me sometimes
I somehow make you stay
I do not love myself enough to think i should be loved the same way
But I'm just glad you'll have me
I'll love you carefully
Maybe there's a chance you'll still love me
But it's not the way you're looking back at me

Strange conditions make me tolerable
Telling me you can't be certain makes me ill
Telling you we have no future makes you stay with me
You say your doubt was only temporary
But it's not the way you're looking back at me

Chorus:
You ask to leave me sometimes
I somehow make you stay
I do not love myself enough to think i should be loved the same way
But I'm just glad you'll have me
I'll love you carefully
Maybe there's a chance you'll still love me
But it's not the way you're looking back at me

Middle8:
To let you leave me
Sounds more ethical
I'd rather you less love me
Than not have you at all

But i'm just glad you'll have me
I'll love you carefully
Maybe there's a chance you'll still love me
But it's not the way you're looking back
But it's not the way you're looking back
But it's not the way you're looking back ... at me
