Lyrics and translation
Original
Can't expect a boy to know the way around your mind if you don't tell him what you like.
Can't expect a boy to know the recipe to all of your unspoken desires.
But it feels so insincere to receive my wishes by command.
Yeah, it feels so insincere being taken on the dates that I planned.
Can't teach you to love me. It's too far above me.
You gotta know it from the start.
Can't teach you to love me 'cause it feels rather funny when it's not coming from the heart. Does it feel like labor?
Has it become a second nature?
Like a chore that you're beginning to resent.
'Cause it's almost like you do it all just for my approval, not because your love is fizzing over the edge.
Yeah, it feels so insincere tryna fit you in the mold that I desire.
Yeah, it feels so insincere 'cause you deserve to be adored the way you're wired.
Can't teach you to love me. It's too far above me.
You gotta know it from the start.
Oh.
Can't teach you to love me 'cause it feels rather funny to try and rearrange your heart.
If it was right, wouldn't we know? We shouldn't hide what's meant to show.
And I can't force fate when it don't stand on its own.
Can't teach you to love me. It's too far above me.
It's out of my control.
Uh.
