So Important

[Verse 1]
Begging isn't easy
It kills your self-esteem
Makes you feel dependent
It makes you feel mean

[Verse 2]
But subtlety is useless
In breaking down a wall
And subtlety is toothless
You'd rather see me crawl

[Pre-Chorus 1]
So if it takes a flashy display
To make you warm up, OK

[Chorus]
Because you're so important to me
So important to me
So important to me
Right now

[Verse 3]
This discrimination
Is cruel and inhumane
If I had any pride left
I'd say you were insane

[Verse 4]
If only you would love me
Or just be less intense
It isn't that I'm ugly
It isn't that I'm dense

[Pre-Chorus 2]
But if it takes a cheap, tawdry scene
To make you see what I mean

[Chorus]
Because you're so important to me
So important to me
So important to me
Right now
Because you're so important to me
So important to me
So important to me
Right now

[Interlude 1]

[Pre-Chorus 2]
But if it takes a cheap, tawdry scene
To make you see what I mean

[Chorus]
Because you're so important to me
So important to me
So important to me
Right now

[Interlude 2]

[Chorus]
So important to me
So important to me
So important to me
Right now, right now
