Chorus

Appreciate me for the things I do

Even when you don’t ask me to

So appreciate me because you need me more than I need you

Appreciate me cause I don’t need you, I leave you any time

And leave you without a dime

Verse

One morning, sitting in the empty dining room

Come home late, food’s gotten cold

I asked you “where have you been” and you say you were with someone

No one important but I knew that she was one you’ve been texting

Flirting and probably even more

And she’s the reason you’ve been smiling more

So then I ask this one question “Do you appreciate me?”

Chorus

Appreciate me for the things I do

Even when you don’t ask me to

So appreciate me because you need me more than I need you

Appreciate me cause I don’t need you, I leave you any time

And leave you without a dime

Verse

So when I leave you, will you miss me?

If I’m never in your life, leave your side you’ll never be the same

Cause when I leave, you’ll drown in pain

Thinking about the things I did for that you never appreciate

It didn’t stop to think, that I might leave

That I might leave you for someone else

Someone better, someone new who can appreciate me too

Chorus

Appreciate me for the things I do

Even when you don’t ask me to

So appreciate me because you need me more than I need you

Appreciate me cause I don’t need you, I leave you any time

And leave you without a dime

Oh, cause then I can appreciate you…too
