Lyrics
What Am I Doing?
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.
She was such an incredible woman.
And one night we both set ourselves free.
I could feel all the power inside her.
And she seemed to release it to me.
Then she suddenly said I can't see her.
And the thought of it drove me insane.
So I find up a tree I am creeping,
To the roof over where she is sleeping,
And I sit there all night in the rain.
And I'm thinking:
What am I doin up on a roof?
What am I doin out in the rain?
What kind of feelings make a man blind?
What am I doin' out of my mind with love?
And they're shouting:
What is he doin' up on a roof?
What is he doin out in the rain
What kind of feelings make a man blind?
What kind of guy goes out of his mind with love?
I decided that I've learned my lesson
I rejoined all the sensible men.
Now no matter how temping the woman,
I won't ever go crazy again.
When I'm safe and alone in my bedroom,
Thanking God I'm not shaking and wet?
I think back to the night I felt tingles,
Holding tight not to slide down the shingles,
Feeling feelings I'll never forget.
And I wish I was saying:
What am I doin up on a roof?
What am I doin out in the rain?
What kind of feelings make a man blind?
What am I doin' out of my mind with...
What am I doin' tailin' her car?
What am I doin' inside her bushes?
What am I doin' covered with mud?
What am I doin' out of my mind with Love?
With Love?
What am I doin?
What am I doin' stealin' her scarf?
What am I doin' sniffin' her perfume?
What am I doin' sifting' her trash?
What am I doin' testin' her doorknob, dialling' her phone,
Trampling her tulips, bugging' her friends, Pettin' her dog?
Oh what am I doin' out of my mind...
With Love!!
What am I doin' out of my mind with love?
