[Verse 1]
Summertime, east-side New York City
It's too hot to sleep
Half-alive and my mind is dripping
I'm twistin' the sheets

[Build]
'Cause my heart can't be satisfied
By anyone but you tonight
And when I try, it only makes me blue
Why can't you want me like the
Why can't you want me like the
Why can't you want me like the other boys do?

[Drop]
Why can't you want me like the other boys do?
They stare at me while I stare at you
Why can't you want me, baby, what can I do?
I don't want other boys, I just want you

[Chorus]
Why can't you want me like the other boys do?
They stare at me while I stare at you
Why can't you want me, baby, what can I do?
I don't want other boys, I just want you
[Verse 2]
Silhouettes, a city of shadows
They all take your shape
In my defense, you've got me unraveled
And I can't see straight

[Chorus]
'Cause my heart can't be satisfied
By anyone but you tonight
And when I try, it only makes me blue
My heart can't be satisfied
By anyone but you tonight
And when I try, it only makes me blue

[Build]
Why can't you want me like the other boys do?
They stare at me while I stare at you
Why can't you want me, baby, what can I do?
I don't want other boys, I just want you
You, you, you
Why can't you want me like the other boys do?

[Drop]
Why can't you want me like the other boys do?
Why can't you want me like the other boys do?
[Chorus]
Why can't you want me like the other boys do?
They stare at me while I stare at you
Why can't you want me, baby, what can I do?
I don't want other boys, I just want you
