Mistakes
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 just a boy, I don't know sorrow. Sorrow sure knows me
Give my life for you to borrow, maybe then you'd see
You'd see
No, no, no, no
What am I doing wrong girl?
What am I doing wrong?
What am I doing wrong girl?
What am I doing wrong?
Doo doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo
I'm just a child, don't know what love is. Just a word within a song
Put yourself into my shoes, tell me that I'm wrong
I'm wrong
No, no, no, no
What am I doing wrong girl?
What am I doing wrong?
So, what am I doing wrong girl?
What am I doing wrong?
Tell me, what am I doing wrong girl?
What am I doing wrong?
Doo doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo
I guess my best ain't enough
I guess my best ain't enough
I try but don't measure up
I guess my best ain't enough
But if you weren't scared enough
Tell me, what am I doing wrong girl?
What am I doing wrong?
Doo doo doo doo doo
