What Am I To Do?

June, 2004

Written By: Lisa A. Courtney


1st Verse:

What am I?to do?
I?m so in love with you
Every breath that you take
Every step that you make
I just want to be with you.

Chorus:

What am I?to do?
I can?t turn grey skies to blue
Even though I wanted to
I can?t take your agony?and pain away
I can?t stop the rain.

2nd Verse:

What am I?to do?
You?re my lover and my friend
And I?ll be here ?til the end
Although you didn?t ask me to
I?ll share this day with you.

Chorus:

What am I?to do?
I can?t turn grey skies to blue
Even though I wanted to
I can?t your agony?and pain away
I can?t stop the rain.


3rd Verse:

What am I?to do?
I can?t stop loving you
Letting go so hard you know
But, with all my heart and soul
I know you need to go?

Bridge:

So spread those wings and fly?
Until you reach the sky?


Chorus:

What am I?to do?
I can?t turn grey skies into blue
Even though I wanted to
I can?t take your agony?and pain away
I can?t stop the rain.

Tag:

Be right here for you?
I?ll be right here for you.
