what do you want me to do

Rod Stewart

I tried to do the things in my own way
I tried to do what people say
but I was going nowhere fast
And now I'm turning to you at last

What do you want me to do
What do you want me to do
What do you want me to do, Lord

I can see the lights of home
But I can't get there on my own
I can see the landing strip
But I need you to guide my ship

What do you want me to do
What do you want me to do
What do you want me to do, Lord

I've been a fool and I've been a clown
I've let the enemy turn me around
I've wasted love and I've wasted time
I've been proud and I've been blind
There's such a lot of things to change
A whole world to rearrange
And if you show me how
I'll begin right now

What do you want me to do
What do you want me to do
What do you want me to do, Lord

I've been deceived and misunderstood
But in my heart there was only good
I stood alone most of my time
But now I've got by my side

What do you want me to do
What do you want me to do
What do you want me to do, Lord

What do you want me to do, Lord
What do you want me to do, Lord
"Cause I'm listenin', I'm listenin'
Lord, I'm listenin', I'm listenin'
