I said you build me up baby
See, cigarettes and coffee ain't good for you
Now I'm on my own and it's all I do
Seem to have lost my appetite over you
Now I need to chill but my mind won't keep still
Everyday, everyday
Confusion is the only word left I know
Wish I had the answers why you blow hot and cold
Illusions never ending deceiving me
First thing you do, second you don't
Everyday, everyday
I said you build me up
You build me up
You tear me down
You're so elusive
It's not conducive
For us to be one
So true we be two
Me and you and you and you and you
So many other fakers and chance first play
You know you'll never get that from me, no way
I crucify you, no I rectify you
No, no, don't ask me why
For you I live or die
Now I need no jacket
But a punch I will pack it
Every time, every time, every time, every time
Stop reckoning my love ain't enough for you
Now you're understanding the things I do
I die trying, it's a riot and no taboo
I need to lick it but you never stick it
Too long, too long, too long, too long
You build me up
You tear me down
You're so elusive
It's not conducive
For us to be one
So true we be two
Me and you and you and you and you
You build me up
For us to be one
So true we be two
Me and you and you and you and you
You tear me down
You're so elusive
It's not conducive
For us to be one
So true we be two
Me and you and you and you and you
You tear me down
You're so elusive
It's not conducive
You build me up
