  • Is it so hard
    To satisfy your senses?
    You found out to love me
    You have to climb some fences
    Scratching and crawling
    Along the floor to touch you
    And just when it feels right
    You say you found someone to hold you
    Does she like I do?

    Baby, tell me does she love you
    Like the way I love you?
    Does she stimulate you?
    Attract and captivate you?
    Tell me, does she miss you?
    Existing just to kiss you
    Like the way I do?

    Tell me, does she want you?
    Infatuate and haunt you?
    Does she know just how to shock you?
    Electrify and rock you?
    Does she inject you?
    Seduce you and affect you?
    Like the way I do?
    Like the way I do?

    Can I survive
    All the implications?
    Even if I tried
    Could you be less than an addiction?
    Don't you think I know
    There's so many others
    Who would beg, steal and lie
    Fight, kill and die
    Just to hold you
    Hold you like I do?

    Baby, tell me does she love you
    Like the way I love you?
    Does she stimulate you?
    Attract and captivate you?
    Tell me, does she miss you?
    Existing just to kiss you?
    Like the way I do?

    Tell me, does she want you?
    Infatuate and haunt you?
    Does she know just how to shock you?
    Electrify and rock you?
    Does she inject you?
    Seduce you and affect you?
    Like the way I do?

    Oh, nobody loves you
    Like the way I do
    Nobody wants you
    Like the way I do
    Nobody needs you
    Like the way I do
    Nobody aches
    Nobody aches just to hold you
    Like the way I do
    No, no, no

    Tell me, does she love you
    Like the way I love you?
    Does she stimulate you?
    Attract and captivate you?
    Baby, baby, tell me, does she miss you?
    Existing just to kiss you?
    Like the way I do?

    No, tell me, does she want you?
    Infatuate and haunt you?
    Does she know just how to shock you?
    Electrify and rock you?
    Does she inject you?
    Seduce you and affect you, baby?
    Like the way I do?
    No, like the way I do?
    Oh-ho, yeah Writer/s: Melissa Etheridge
