"When It Pleases You" lyrics

"When It Pleases You"
(originally by Dan Wilson)

You love me when it pleases you
You want me when it's easy to do
You hold me when you don't want anybody else to
You love me when it pleases you

I've been keepin' it convenient for you to keep close to me
I've been makin' it too easy for you to hang on loosely
I've been holdin' on and dreamin' on but you only come round to me
When it pleases you
When it pleases you

I call you when I want to hear
My voice whisper in your voicemail's ear
I think of you at the strangest times
You've got me in the back of your mind

I've been keepin' it convenient for you to keep close to me
I've been makin' it too easy for you to hang on loosely
I've been holdin' on and dreamin' on but you only come round to me
When it pleases you
When it pleases you

Late at night when the stars come out
I walk the roadside see 'em turnin' round
Look at one long enough you might see one fall
Look at one for too long and you can't see it at all

I've been keepin' it convenient for you to keep close to me
I've been makin' it too easy for you to hang on loosely
I've been holdin' on and dreamin' on for you only to come round to me
When it pleases you
When it pleases you
When it pleases you
When it pleases you
