When you complain and, and criticize
I feel I'm nothing in your eyes
It makes me feel like giving up
Because my best just ain't good enoughGirl, I want to provide for you
And do all the things that you want me to, butOh, oh no, don't bring me down
I'm beggin' you darlin'
Oh, oh no, don't bring me downSacrifices, I will make
I'm ready to give, as well as take
One thing I need is your respect
One thing I can't take is your neglectMore than anything, I need your love
