The Right Thing
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 got no story
I got no hero's history to write you
I got nothing to offer
But I got a single-lane highway that can take you
Away from here
And did you know that every time
I get a glimpse into your future I
I've got to figure out
Can I do the right thing?
Oh, I'm so afraid 'cause it's your life in my hands
Gotta go the right way
Oh, I'm looking for a black and white streetlight to guide me
I got no excuses
I got no reason for you to stay with me now
I got nothing to go on
Except for this sinking feeling I can keep you safe from harm
And did you know that every time
I get a glimpse into your future I
I gotta figure out
Can I do the right thing?
Oh, I'm so afraid 'cause it's your life in my hands
Gotta go the right way
Oh, I'm looking for a black and white streetlight to guide me
Back to you, back to you
Don't know, can't see what's in front of me
I don't know where I am going
You hold my life in your hands, in your hands
Can I do the right thing?
Oh, I'm so afraid 'cause it's your life in my hands
Gotta go the right way
Oh, I'm looking for a black and white streetlight to guide me
Back to you, back to you
Back to you, back to you
Don't know, can't see what's in front of me
I don't know where I am going
You hold my life in your hands
