What Can I Do Songtext

What Can I Do Songtext
What can I do
To hold your hand?
What can I say
To make you understand?
You′re driving me nuts
Baby, baby, baby
Come back, won't you be?
I wanna be your loving man
Oh, oh, how will it feel?
I wanna know how will it feel
To be in your arms
How will it be?
How will it be
To feel your many charms?
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
Two weeks ago, the girl that I loved
She left me for my best friend
And one week after, they were getting married
She had the nerve to invite me down to the wedding
And I had the heart to go
But as I sat there in the back of the church that Sunday afternoon
I could hear the organ playing soft and low
Here comes the bride
And the preacher, he looked at the guy and he said
Do you take this woman to be your lawful wedded wife?
To love, cherish on and obey until the day you die?
And he said: I do
Then he looked at the girl, that I loved
And he said: Do you take this man to be your lawful wedded husband?
To love, cherish on and obey until the day you die?
And she looked at him and she said: I do
Lord have mercy, I couldn′t say a word
Not one single, solid term of word, could I say
But as she came up the aisle
She stopped in front of me and she said
Derrick, darling, even though you and I are apart
I'll always reserve a place here in the bottom of my heart, just for you
When I watched them as the people threw rice over their heads
I watched them as they drove away on their honeymoon
And as I sat there, I hear the choir as they sang:
Too late! She's gone!
Too late! She′s gone!
What can I do, do, do, do, do, do, do?
What can I do?
To hold your hand?
What can I say
To make you understand?
You′re driving me nuts
Baby, baby, baby
Come back, won't you be?
I wanna be your loving man
Oh, oh, how will it feel?
I wanna know how will it feel
To be in your arms
How will it be?
How will it be
To feel your many charms?
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
