Someday (You'll Want Me To Want You)
Dean Martin · Very Best of Dean Martin [Mastersong] [2006]
When I'm in love with somebody else
You expect me to be true and to keep on loving you
Though I'm feeling blue.
You'd think I can't forget you
Until someday you'll want me to want you
When I'm strong for somebody new
And though you don't want me now
I'll get along somehow
And then I won't won't want you.
Until someday you'll want me to want you
When I'm strong for somebody new
Although you don't want me now
I'll get along somehow
And then I won't I won't want you...
