Lovefool
SEBASTIAN
Dear, I fear we're facing a problem
You love me no longer, I know
And maybe there is nothing
That I can do to make you do

ANNETTE
Mama tells me I shouldn't bother
That I ought to stick to another man
A man that surely deserves me

SEBASTIAN
But I think you do!
So I cry, I pray and I beg
Love me love me
Say that you love me

ANNETTE
Fool me fool me
Go on and fool me

SEBASTIAN
Love me love me
Pretend that you love me

ANNETTE
Leave me leave me
SEBASTIAN
Just say that you need me
I can't care 'bout anything but you

ANNETTE
You know, it amazes me someone as charming as you can be so manipulative

SEBASTIAN
We're not going to start with this letter nonsense again, are we? You could at least have the decency of telling me who's bad-mouthing me so I might have the opportunity to confront them

ANNETTE
Not a chance

SEBASTIAN
Lately I have desperately pondered
Spent my nights awake and I wonder
What I could have done in another way
To make you stay

ANNETTE
Reason will not lead to solution
I will end up lost in confusion

SEBASTIAN
I don't care if you really care
As long as you don't go
ANNETTE
So I cry, I pray, and I beg

SEBASTIAN
Love me, love me
Say that you love me

ANNETTE
Fool me, fool me
Go on and fool me

SEBASTIAN
I can't care 'bout anything but you

ANNETTE
You know, I'm seeing someone

SEBASTIAN
Oh, yes, the infamous Trevor. It's funny how you haven't mentioned him until now

ANNETTE
He's backpacking through Europe. He's great. I really miss him

SEBASTIAN
I care
ANNETTE
I'm sorry, but you're not my type. The best you can hope for is my friendship, and at this point, you're really walking a fine line at that

SEBASTIAN
Love me love me
Say that you love me

ANNETTE
Fool me fool me
Go on and fool me

SEBASTIAN
Love me love me
Pretend that you love me

ANNETTE
Leave me leave me

SEBASTIAN
Just say that you need me
I can't care 'bout anything but you
