The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
What can I say?
What can I do?
3 A.M., it's me again, wouldn't you know
Things would have to end this way
I did my best by perfectly guessing when to go
Perfect, you knew when to stay
Come on, tell me that you're lonely, dear
I've been feeling down some too
After all this time now, I've made it clear
I've been waiting just for you
(What can I say?)
Oh, to make me know, baby
(What can I do?)
Ooh, show me that you care
(What can I say?)
Hmm, got to have your number, baby
(What can I do?)
Do
Can't you see the people just stop and stare?
Don't it make you wonder why?
I just happened to be standing there
Can't you see it in my eyes?
(What can I say?)
Hmm, you got me actin' like a fool girl
(What can I do?)
Ooh, stop making like a little school girl
(What can I say?)
Could be your lucky day, baby
(What can I do?)
Hmm, let's talk, ah, talk to me, girl
(What can I say?)
Oh, to make you know, baby
(What can I do?)
Oh, to show you that I care
(What can I say?)
Oh, I'm down on my knees
(What can I do?)
Please, please, please, what can I say?
(What can I say?)
(What can I do?)
Ooh, what can I do?
(What can I say?)
What can I say, baby
(What can I do?)
(What can I say?)
(What can I do?)
