First draft of "How do you?"
When the hope seems gone,
When no one sings along,
When I sit, turn away,
Try to forget the day.
How do you know what to say.
When all I can do is sit and pray
How do you know what to say
To get me to go on and lay
On your shoulder?
How do you know what to say?
So easily cast away,
The pain and the problems of today,
The ill and the hatred coming my way.
How do you know what to say?
To make it go away?
How do you see through the wall I’m putting up?
How do you blast through the bricks,
And push out all those evil tricks.
How do you make me stay,
How do you make me want to say
All of my problems,
Give it away.
Oh, when I’m on that edge,
The one where it feels like a sledge
Hammers dug out that hole
Where my heart was.
How do you say,
Just the right thing,
You know I don’t need no diamond ring,
I don’t need a box of candy,
I don’t even need you to sing.
Baby all I need is you.
You lookin’ in my eyes,
And saying everything will be ok,
I don’t know why I believe it,
But oh baby I do.
Only with you.
Do I not need that gun.
Your love does more,
Then I ever knew
Could ever be done.
Baby your love makes me spill
All that makes me ill.
All the love I have can’t even fulfill
The minimum you deserve.
Oh how much I owe
You baby you are the one.
The one who makes that wall disappear,
The one who makes problems cower in fear.
When you look into my eyes,
Your love over flows,
And fills up the rest of yours,
The love that I can’t yet convey
