[Verse 1]What do I do to make you smile?You been hurting for a whileWhat can I do to make you laugh?Get St. Peter's autograph?What’s that distance in your eyes?Has your faith been compromised?What can I do to help you sleep?I'll work hard and work for cheap[Bridge 1]Sometimes it's nothing but the way you’re wiredAnd that's not your faultWe're all struggling with the world on fireAnd the fear we're taught[Verse 2]Now you've lost another friendWho couldn't stay to see the endHe had somewhere else to beCut him down and burn the treeThere's no shelter from the rainAnd I can't comprehend your painBut I got arms and I got earsAnd I will always be right here[Bridge 2]Sometimes its nothing but the way you’re raisedAnd that could have been worseAnd I see you suffering through the best of daysStill you’re putting me first[Verse 3]What do I do to let you knowThat I'm not haunted by his ghost?Let him dance around our roomLet him smell of your perfumeShare your best remember whensIf he comes through here againMaybe he could make you laughBring St. Peter’s autograph
