"Metaphor" lyrics

Oh baby ah
There's a chill in this room
And it's coming from you
I feel like a stranger, I need an answer
Tell me what you're going through
I saw you cry the other night
You turned your back, turned off the light
Now how can I help you if you never tell me
Exactly what you're going through

She said lately you ain't been spending time
Lately I ain't been on your mind
Baby you don't even say I love you anymore

Everything I do, I do for you
Every breath I take, I breathe for two
Every word I say
My whole life through
It's just a metaphor for I love you

What's a sailboat without the sea
Or your wedding day but without me?
Everything I am and all I'll be
It's just a metaphor for I love you

At expressing my feelings I may not be the best
But that doesn't mean that I love you any less
'Cause all I do is think of you
Though I may not even notice when you wear a new dress
I always treat you with love and respect
See it don't take them things for me to be impressed
'Cause you're my boo

She said lately you ain't been spending time
Lately I ain't been on your mind
Baby you don't even say I love you anymore
But I do babe

Everything I do, I do for you
Every breath I take, I breathe for two
Every word I say
My whole life through
It's just a metaphor for I love you

I hope you listen to me, baby

What's a sailboat without the sea
Or your wedding day but without me?
Everything I am and all I'll be
It's just a metaphor for I love you

Now I know, a woman needs attention
(Give it to her, give it to her)
And I know sometimes you need to mention
(She's sexy, so sexy)
And I know you gotta make her feel
She's the most beautiful girl in the world

Everything I do, I do for you
Every breath I take, I breathe for two
Every word I say
My whole life through
It's just a metaphor for I love you

What's a sailboat without the sea
Or your wedding day but without me?
Everything I am and all I'll be
It's just a metaphor for I love you

Everything I do, I do for you
Every breath I take, I breathe for two
Every word I say
My whole life through
It's just a metaphor for I love you

I wish you understood

What's a sailboat without the sea
Or your wedding day but without me?
Everything I am and all I'll be
It's just a metaphor for I love you

Everything I do, I do for you
Every breath I take, I breathe for two
Every word I say
My whole life through
It's just a metaphor for I love you

What's a sailboat without the sea
Or your wedding day but without me?
Everything I am and all I'll be
It's just a metaphor for I love you
