You Lyrics
You don't want me, no
You don't need me
Like I want you, oh
Like I need you
And I want you in my life
And I need you in my life
You can't see me, no
Like I see you
I can't have you, no
Like you have me
And I want you in my life
And I need you in my life
Love, love, love
Love, love, love
Love, love, love
You can't feel me, no
Like I feel you
I can't steal you, no
Like you stole me
And I want you in my life
And I need you in my life
You don't need me
Like I want you, oh
Like I need you
And I need you in my life
Like I see you
I can't have you, no
Like you have me
And I need you in my life
Love, love, love
Love, love, love
Like I feel you
I can't steal you, no
Like you stole me
And I need you in my life

This song really hits a soft spot for me right now...I've read a lot of comments both here-and various other places-where people say this is a sexual song; and that's all its about.Wrong.It's very obvious that this song is much more.If you listen to it while reading it really makes sense... ...It's obvious that the girl is in pain and her heart is breaking because she loves someone that she knows she'll never be able to have,all of us can relate to this.We all have had someone/have someone that we want nothing more then to reach out and say,"I love you,so love me back." But sadly,it doesn't work that way.She see's him for who he truly is and loves him for all of his flaws but he cannot love her the same way-either because he doesn't want to or he just doesnt see it-it's obvious this song is a classic heartbreak song.
I agree with you 100%. You just hit the nail on the head with how this song relates to me.

Only 6 comments. This is a simple yet amazing song. I know the feeling; I know what it feels like to bang your head repeatedly against a wall that cannot come down. Defeat is a bitter pill to swallow, but so is continued pain of knowing that being unable to connect has more to do with the other person than it does you. Good song. Good band. Now I need to get some work done...
I second that and for good reason. He wants affirmation that he's adored, but no matter how often he's told, he still won't believe it. It has LITTLE to do with her. And it doesn't really matter because she's not in his league; he has a certain type he allows into his world and she doesn't fit that mold. And no matter what she does to her body or her personality, she will never be what he likes. He will never feel safe with her. And he'll continue to run from her while living in dreams. (And with that, I...

how has no one commented on this song? it's absolutely beautiful and VERY easy to relate to!
i think it's about being so in love with someone (most likely a friend), but they don't return the feelings. so she's sitting there, confessing her love (through song) but the person doesn't know it or care to understand. that's just my opinion/interpretation though.
This song is about being deeply in love with someone who doesn't feel the same way, who doesn't love you back. That's clear I think... And Elektronaut I'm pretty sure this isn't about an ex, this is about someone you never had.
This is a very simple, beautiful song.
I agree with plastichearts. That's definitely what it seems to mean.
Really sweet, simple song. Love it
I think it's about unrequited love.
I think this song is about being in love with a celebrity or having a celebrity crush. If you've had one hardcore, you'd know what I mean. She feels like she wants and needs this celeb in her life, but he doesn't need or want her because he doesn't even know she exists."you can't see me like I see you" she sees him in movies or on stage. "I can't have you like you have me" she will never have his attention but he will always have hers. "I can't steal you like you stole me" again with the attention. he stole all of her attention and she can't stop obsessing. maybe its not a healthy obsession. maybe shes crazy. infatuation?
This is just me, but I do believe that this song is not only about loving someone who doesn't love you back, but it's about giving everything you have. What I got from the lyrics was that she was giving him sex and everything because she loves him to death...But in the end she knows all she is to him is a "Booty Call". So she keeps giving him what he wants but she doesn't 'have him' like he 'has her'. He doesn't love her but she is head over heals for him. But hey, that is just me. :)
i think this song is about any sort of relationship that has failed and you just want them back
