What am I gonna 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.
What am I gonna do when the sun goes down
and all the lights are low,
what am I gonna do when I recall
the love we used to know.
I remember the happiness we knew,
darling can't we make up soon
'cause I don't know what I'm gonna do.
What am I gonna do on wednesday night
when I used to call you on the phone,
what am I gonna say at the Record Hop
when I show up alone.
There all ask me what's become of you,
darling can't we make up soon
'cause I don't know what I'm gonna do.
At the movies or at the football game,
please believe me, nothing's gonna be the same.
So what am I gonna do on saturday night
whan everything goes wrong,
how am I gonna feel when the radio
plays our favourite song.
I'm so lonely just like Mr. Blue,
darling can't we make up soon
'cause I don't know what I'm gonna do.
