Lyrics

VERSE 1

I pace the floor at a quarter to nine
and still you're not home
I make believe you're working late
and just forgot to phone
Oh, what can I do
Oh, what can I do

VERSE 2

I don't want to live this lie, but
I don't want to know the truth
I'll go on making believe
it's just me and you
Oh, what can I do
Oh, what can I do

CHORUS 1

I don't want to be afraid
to love someone like you
But every time I look away
you're loving someone new
Oh' what can I do
Oh, what can I do

VERSE 3

As the night turns to day
my hope begins to fade
I make a promise to myself
but, I know my love remains
Oh, what can I do
Oh, what can I do

CHORUS 2

I don't want to be afraid
to love someone like you
But every time I look away
you're loving someone new

Oh, what can I do
Oh, what can I do

SOLO

VERSE 4

In the morning at a quarter to ten
you finally come back home
I only have to look in your eyes
to know you weren't alone
Oh, what can I do
Oh, what can I do

VERSE 5

You tell a story I know is a lie
I try so hard to believe
I don't want to take the chance
you'll turn around and leave
Oh, what can I do
Oh, what can I do

CHORUS 3

I don't want to be afraid
to love someone like you
But every time I look away
you're loving someone new
Oh, what can I do
Oh, what can I do

CHORUS 4

Every time I look away
you're loving someone new
Oh, what can I do
Oh, what can I do
Oh, what can I do
Oh, what can I do
