I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I'd love you to love me
I'm beggin' you to beg me

I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I'd love you to love me
I'll shine them old old brown shoes, put my brand-new shirt
I'll get home early from work if you say that you love me

Yeah didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'?
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cry?
Feelin' alone without a friend you feel like dyin'
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'?

And I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I'd love you to love me
Oh I'm beggin' you to beg me
I'll shine them old old brown shoes, put my brand-new shirt
I'll get home early from work if you say that you love me

Yeah didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'?
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cry?
Oh baby all in all make me feel like dyin'
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'?

Feelin' all alone without a friend, you know you feel like dyin'
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'?

Yeah I want you to want me
And I need you to need me
Yeah I'd love you to love me
I'm beggin' you to beg me

Oh I want you to want me
And I need you to need me
Yeah I'd love you to love me
I'm beggin' you to beg me

Oh didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'?
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cry?
Oh didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cryin'?
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you cry?

Eric Church is an American country music singer-songwriter from Granite Falls, North Carolina. After graduating from Appalachian State University with a business degree in 2000, Eric became engaged to a Spanish teacher from Lenior, NC whose father attempted to deter his musical aspirations by offering him a corporate career in Denver. After turning down her father’s offer, Church’s ex-fiance broke the engagement, giving Church motivation to move to Nashville and begin focusing solely on his music. Recollections of this turning point in Church’s life are heard throughout his lyrical portfolio (most prominently in “Those I’ve Loved”).

After a period of being overlooked by record labels and producers, Church was eventually signed to Capitol Records in 2006, making his debut with the album, Sinners Like Me. The album produced four singles on the Billboard Country Chart, “How ‘Bout You,” “Two Pink Lines,” “Guys Like Me,” and the album’s title track.

His second album, 2009’s Carolina, produced three more “Smoke a Little Smoke,” “Love Your Love the Most,” and “Hell on the Heart.”
