Lyrics focus - Ernie Rillo

When you ask for my attention
I do my best to give it to you
But when I ask the same thing
You turn right the hell away from me

I don't even know what to do
Cause you have me feeling so helpless

How come only I've noticed
That things aren't the way they used to be?
If I told you right now
I'd be saying the same phrase

I just need you to
I just need you to focus on me
I just need you to
I just need you to focus on me

I just need you to
I just need you to focus on me

Gave you all I could
Now it's time for you to give me the payback
That's all I'm asking from you

But I just need you to
I just need you to focus on me

When it's late at night
I do my best to stay up and talk to you
But when it's the afternoon
You stay asleep and don't wake up until later

And I'd just be waiting for you
Cause you entertain me all the time

How come you flip out when I
Tell you how I feel about the way we're doing things?
"I don't know," that's the excuse I get every time

I just need you to
I just need you to focus on me
I just need you to
I just need you to focus on me

I just need you to
I just need you to focus on me

Gave you all I could
Now it's time for you to give me the payback
That's all I'm asking from you

But I just need you to
I just need you to focus on me

You like to lecture me
And even though I don't want to
I listen to you

Cause in your head you swear that you own me
But you don't

And while you tell everyone that we're fine
Behind the doors, it's just different

I know it's not that serious
And I'm being too dramatic
But you need to give me the love that you gave me before
Before I call this all off

I just need you to
I just need you to focus on me
I just need you to
I just need you to focus on me

I just need you to
I just need you to focus on me

Gave you all I could
Now it's time for you to give me the payback
That's all I'm asking from you

But I just need you to
I just need you to focus on me

I just need you to
I just need you to focus on me
I just need you to
