What Do You Want From Me? Lyrics
Sha la la la la la la, sha la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la, sha la la la la la la
There is one thing that I would die for
Its when you say my life is in your hands
Cos you were near me your love is all I need
Now I can't imagine
What do you want from me?
It's not how it used to be
You've taken my life away
Ruining everything
What do you want from me?
It's not how it used to be
You've taken my life away
Ruining everything
Give me something I can rely on
Far away from the life that I once knew
What does it matter? That's all I have to say
And I can't imagine
What do you want from me?
It's not how it used to be
You've taken my life away
Ruining everything
What do you want from me?
It's not how it used to be
You've taken my life away
Ruining everything
Sha la la la la la la, sha la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la, sha la la la la la la
What do you want from me?
It's not how it used to be
You've taken my life away,
Ruining everything
What do you want from me?
It's not how it used to be
You've taken my life away
Ruining everything
Sha la la la la la la, sha la la la la la la
Its when you say my life is in your hands
Cos you were near me your love is all I need
Now I can't imagine
It's not how it used to be
You've taken my life away
Ruining everything
What do you want from me?
It's not how it used to be
You've taken my life away
Ruining everything
Far away from the life that I once knew
What does it matter? That's all I have to say
And I can't imagine
It's not how it used to be
You've taken my life away
Ruining everything
What do you want from me?
It's not how it used to be
You've taken my life away
Ruining everything
Sha la la la la la la, sha la la la la la la
It's not how it used to be
You've taken my life away,
Ruining everything
What do you want from me?
It's not how it used to be
You've taken my life away
Ruining everything

I agree with all the other comments on this song,though i think its more of a generic song meaning, i.e it can be applied to anything! relationships, work, family, etc etc
really good song to vent some anger to!! awesome bass line as well, one of hookies best
I agree that the lyrics are probably just generic and can mean what the listener wants them to mean - so whenever I hear the chorus, it' describes how I feel about living and working in my home country of England. Great song and tune.
[Edit: Revision]
This song is sooo good..weird though, such dark lyrics with such a bouncy sha la la.. It's a song you want to dance to, but the words sink in and you can't. Makes me wish I had a chance to set things right with a lover after it went sour.
It's good for when your partner has done something wrong to you, I think... though you should probably play it away from them
A relationship changes your life. This isn't always a good thing. Sometimes you just wish you had your old life back.
