WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME - Lyrics

If I sing you a song

N’make sure nothin’s ever wrong

Would you finally give your heart to me



Or if I write you a rhyme

To make you happy all the time

Maybe then you’d set your feelings free



Should I sing til I can’t sing no more

Come crawling back up to your door

To bring you gifts, whatever I can buy



Perhaps you simply need to hear

“I love you” whispered in your ear

Were it that simple, surely I would try



What do you want from me

You never make it clear

What can I say

What do you want to hear

What can I do…

To win your love for me

What’s on your mind

Babe what can it be



But knowing what I know of you

A simple fix will never do

There always something more that’s called at hand



Like: Help you swing from every star

Or be as perfect as you are

That’s where it sits from what I understand



But trying to pin it down just so’s

Like trying to pin a wave, you know

Upon the sand like sung in that old song



And just like them, I’ve not a clue

Just what the hell I’m s’posed to do

So on it goes as you lead me along



What do you want from me

Just tell me what you need

Where should I go, what should I say

Who should I be

What must I do for you

To win your love for me

What’s in your heart

Oh babe, what can it be



So now I sit and question why

Fight back the tears I want to cry

And wonder to myself when will it end



Yeah, will there ever be a day

When all these games will go away

And I’ll no longer have to just pretend



That your love for me is real

And that you feel the things I feel

I guess I’ll simply have to wait and see



And pray that while I try to do

Everything you want me to

Someday you’ll understand what we could be



What do you want

What do you want from me

What to you want

Babe what can it be

What do you want

I’m beggin darling please

What do you want

What do you want

I’m on my on my knees

What do you want from me

How can I make it clear

What can I say to you

To make you finally hear

What can I do for you

To win your love for me

What’s on your mind

I’m askin babe what can it be



Oh yeah, forever I will ask…

What can it be
