Please pay attention to me
Was the last thing I heard before I drifted to sleep
With children to tend to, and worry in mind
Too much to do, and not enough time
I hate to be needy; Selfish and greedy
But please pay attention to me

Please pay attention to me
Was the last thing I heard comin' out of my dream
I've got something to tell you When the sun has gone down
And if you don't listen, I talk much too loud
I hate to be needy; Selfish and greedy
But please pay attention to me

Why don't you look my way
I'm wavin' my arms and callin' your name
There's too much to mention that grabs your attention
But please pay attention to me

Cuz I could cut myself free
And why should I care if you listen to me
With children to tend to, and worry in mind
Too much to do, and not enough time

I hate to be needy; Selfish and greedy
I hate to keep asking, beggin' and pleading
I'm down on my knees - under your window screaming
Please pay attention to me
Please pay attention to me
Yeah - Please pay attention to me
