Why do you always have to make me explain?
Go over everything time, time and again
You go around with your mind in a sling
Even when I tell you it did not mean a thing

Oh baby, you're too sensitive
Oh baby, you're too sensitive
Oh baby, you're too sensitive
Oh baby, you're too sensitive

I said I liked your brand new Edward Mann hat
And you said, “tell me what did you mean by that?”
I said “I liked it,” and you said “don't you lie”
I said “I meant it” and you started to cry

Oh baby, you're too sensitive
Oh baby, you're too sensitive
Oh baby, you're too sensitive
Oh baby, you're too sensitive

I have to watch every word that I say
In case you take it all in the wrong way
I'm just a prisoner inside one of your tears
I'm so surrounded by your doubt and your fears
You say that I'm always putting you down
Why are you laughing now and why did you frown
You're always looking for a hidden sign
That means I don't love you and you're no longer mine

Oh baby, you're too sensitive
Oh baby, you're too sensitive
Oh baby, you're too sensitive
Oh baby, you're too sensitive

And when I'm reading you say “why don't you speak to me?”
I try to tell you, I'm feeling too weak, and then
And then you say you may as well not be here
I say “I love you,” you say “you're not sincere”
I tell you baby you're just a hopeless case
You look for lies; you look for signs in my face

Oh baby, you're too sensitive
Oh baby, you're too sensitive
Oh baby, you're too sensitive
Oh baby, you're too sensitive
