What Do I Have To Do

I hear what you’re not saying loud ‘n’ clear
I’ve long since stopped asking how you feel
If I’m ever gonna be any closer to you

Oh, what do I have to do to get you to talk to me?
Say anything, just see me in the room
I don’t wanna be a flower on the wall of your world wilting away

How hard is it just to have a simple conversation
Just ask me all about a book I read or how my day went
For me to get through to you, oh what do I have to do?

If I thought it’d make a difference I’d take up golf
And the next time you go fishing I’d tag along
I’d write it word for word across the sky
That if you don’t love me back I’ll die

What do I have to do to get you to talk to me?
Say anything, just see me in the room
I don’t wanna be a flower on the wall of your world wilting away

How hard is it just to have a simple conversation
Ask me all about a book I read or how my day went
For me to get through to you, oh what do I have to do?

Ooh, how hard is it just to have a normal conversation
Tell me about how your long day at work went
For me to get through to you, oh what do I have to do?
Oh yeah, oh what do I have to do?
