Monday's Music Lyrics -- Why Don't You Love Me? (Beyonce)

I don't know any woman who has never found themselves twisted over a guy... God knows I've been there before, but certainly not now, or ever again, for that matter. The truth is if someone can't recognize your beauty (inside & out), they aren't right for you!

I absolutely love this song, because it speaks to this point exactly. In fact, it starts off appearing that she is begging this man to love her, but in the end she realizes:

"There's nothing not to love about me
There's nothing not to need about me
Maybe you're just not the one
Or maybe you're just plain....... DUMB"


For any woman (or even man for that matter) who finds themselves lamenting over unrequited love, this needs to be your song!!! The truth is there are WAY TOO MANY attractive, phenomenal people out there who want to make you their world. But, as long you are in a headspace over someone less deserving you are unavailable to the greatness that awaits you! Why settle for someone who doesn't make you shine??? Cause really, there's nothing not to love about you! Feel it, Know it and Own it!!! ;)

Now, now, now, honey
You better sit down and look around
Cause you must've bumped yo' head
And I love you enough to talk some sense back into you, baby
I'd hate to see you come home, me the kids
And the dog is gone
Check my credentials...
I give you everything you want everything you need
Even your friends say I'm a good woman
All I need to know is why?

Why don't you love me?
Tell me, baby, why don't you love me
When I make me so damn easy to love?
And why don't you need me?
Tell me, baby, why don't you need me
When I make me so damn easy to need?

I got beauty, I got class
I got style, and I got @ss
And you don't even care to care
Looka here
I even put money in the bank account
Don't have to ask no one to help me out
You don't even notice that

Why don't you love me?
Tell me, baby, why don't you love me
When I make me so damn easy to love?
Why don't you need me?
Tell me, baby, why don't you need me
When I make me so damn easy to need?

I got beauty, I got heart
Keep my head in them books, I'm sharp
But you don't care to know I'm smart
Now, now now now now now now
I got moves in your bedroom
Keep you happy with the nasty things I do
But you don't seem to be in tune
Ooh.....

Why don't you love me?
Tell me, baby, why don't you love me
When I make me so damn easy to love?
Why don't you need me?
Tell me, baby, why don't you need me
When I make me so damn easy to need?

There's nothing not to love about me
No, no, there's nothing not to love about me
I'm lovely
There's nothing not to need about me
No, no, there's nothing not to need about me
Maybe you're just not the one
Or maybe you're just plain....... DUMB
