Please Me Like You Want To

Ben Harper

Don't do me any favors
Matter of fact, why don't you do yourself a few?
Your presence, it ain't nobody's blessing
I've got plenty of other things that I could doOh no, not another excuse
Your tired silly games, for me, are just no use
And now it's plain for me to see
You're with somebody that you don't want to beSo won't you please, please me like you want to?
Not, not, like you have to
Or won't you just go on and leave me?
You know leaving me is the least that you could do
You know leaving me is the least that you could doYou could have spared me so much misery
And told me you just wanted a friend
'Cause believe me, there is a difference
When you mean it and when you pretendOr was I just your habit
'Cause I know a habit is a hard thing to break
But won't you spare me a little mercy
There's only so much that I can takeSo won't you please, please me like you want to?
Not, not, like you have to
Or won't you just go on and leave me?
You know leaving me is the least that you could do
Leaving me is the least that you could do
I said, leaving me is the least that you could do
