Why Do You Let Me Stay Here?

by Zooey Deschanel

Why do you let me stay here
All by myself?
Why don't you come and play here?
I'm just sitting on the shelf

Why don't you sit right down and stay a while?
We like the same things, and I like your style
It's not a secret
Why do you keep it?
I'm just sitting on the shelf

I've gotta get your presence
Let's make it known
I think you're just so pleasant
I would like you for my own

Why don't you sit right down and make me smile?
You make me feel like I am just a child
Why do you edit?
Just give me credit
I'm just sitting on the shelf
