Underappreciated
 
Music and lyrics by Christina Aguilera, Scott Storch and Matt Morris
 
 
I remember when it all first began, we were tight right from the start
It wasn't long before you came on strong, trying hard to win my heart
I played hard to get but I couldn't help but give up my heart in the end
You were thoughtful, careful not to hurt the relationship

What happened to those days when you used to be compassionate
Caring what I thought and said, so attentive, a gentleman
Now it's hard to turn your head away from the TV set
Taking me for granted lately and frankly it's gotta quit

  Chorus
Ooh I feel underappreciated
Now girls help me out if you know what I'm talking about
I said, I'm feeling underappreciated
For all the time and effort I have put in this commitment

Let's take it back again to the very beginning when our love was something new
Back when romance was important not just another thing to do
I was feeling high on love's delight, thought I'd never come back down
Now it seems that you and me have lost our solid ground

After time I realized I seem to give more that I get
Funny how things seem to change after a few year's commitment
Used to talk for hours on end of our dreams while we lay in bed
I miss those days when you stayed awake
Now you roll over and snore instead

  Chorus

I miss the nice massages, the long phone calls
And the way you talk, how it'd turn me on
Miss the bubble baths, had the sweetest laughs
I'm needin' those days back

  Chorus

Ooh I feel underappreciated
If you feel me, sing it with me, come on, help me out
I'm feeling underappreciated
