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’m rotten to the core
What you hangin’ with me for
You’re worth the wait, like the desert rain
I light up when you say my name
It’s time to change the road I’m on
I’ve lost at love for so damn long
Tell me what it is I’m doin’ right
‘Cause I don’t wanna mess this up tonight
It’s like I can’t do anything wrong
I ain’t even tryin’ and she just turned down the light
What am I doin’ right
What am I doin’ right
Waitin’ on the other shoe to drop
I’m thinkin’ that I’m thinkin’ this is somethin’ that it’s not
You’re what’s true was the words in red
You’re the promise Momma said
Like a prayer nailed to a door
I guess I never prayed before
Tell me what it is I’m doin’ right
‘Cause I don’t wanna mess this up tonight
It’s like I can’t do anything wrong
I ain’t even tryin’ and she just turned down the light
What am I doin’ right
What am I, what am I doin’ right
Kiss me now while we’re still young
Words rolled off my silver tongue, yeah
Tell me what it is I’m doin’ right
‘Cause I don’t wanna mess this up tonight
It’s like I can’t do anything wrong
I ain’t even tryin’ and she just turned down the light
What am I doin’ right
What am I doin’ right
What am I, what am I doin’ right
