Doing My Best Lyrics

What does it mean

If I write a song

About being alone and nothing's wrong

What does it mean

If I say the words

I'd rather be silent than be misheard

Maybe these are the words of a lonely heart

Trying to get used to the way things are

To whom does it matter

If I shut the door

Turn off the lights, and lie on the floor

To whom do I owe

An answer or two

The reason I do the things that I do

Maybe these are the words of a lonely heart

Trying to get used to the way things are

I'm not yours to handle or hold

It's not your fault if I'm hot or cold

Don't ask me to be something I'm not

I'm doing my best, with what I got.

Do you think we could be

Together apart

Finding a way in a similar dark

Taking a comfort in the things that we share

Knowing in silence that somebody's there

Maybe these are the words of a lonely heart

Trying to get used to the way things are

I'm not yours to handle or hold

It's not your fault if I'm hot or cold

Don't ask me to be something I'm not

I'm doing my best, with what I got.

Maybe these are the words of a lonely heart

Trying to get used to the way things are
