What Can I Do
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.
I can take the sun and make it shine for me
Mathematic problems they're so easy
But you make me so mad
What can I do?
Since I met you I can't let you out of sight
For another man to discover you're alright
And if he makes you glad
What can I do?
When I'm so much in love with you yes
No matter what you do
I'll never change my mind
My vocation's recreation time for me
But the last one is the last one I'll be free
'Cause you make me so mad
What can I do?
All my life I've wanted someone just like you
But if seeing is believing, it's not true
'Cause you make me so mad
What can I do?
When I'm so much in love with you
Yes no matter what you do
I'll never change my mind
I'll never change my mind
No no no
Change my mind
Never ever change my mind
What can I do?
