Bernadette Peters — I Dont Know Why I Just Do / Mean to Me

You’re as mean as you can be Always love to scold But you treat your other friends Quite decently, I’m told I should really hate you, dear And, in fact, I guess I do Except when you are near I don’t know why I love you like I do I don’t know why, I just do I don’t know why you thrill me like you do I don’t know why, you just do You never seem to want my romancing The only time you hold me is when we’re dancing I don’t know why I love you I don’t know why, I just do I treat you sweetly I'm yours completely Think of you, dream of you All day through I thought I pleased you Whatever seized you That made you trеat me The way you do? Love you - I always will Think of you only, and still You'rе mean to me Why must you be mean to me? Gee, honey, it seems to me You like to see me cryin' I don't know why I stay home Each night when you say you'll phone You don't, and I'm left alone Singing the blues and sighin' You treat me coldly each day in the year You always scold me, whenever Somebody is near - dear It must be Great fun to be mean to me You shouldn't, for can't you see What you mean to me?
