What Can I Do © 2003 David Roth

I heard somebody had a hard day out there
I had a hard one too
We could count ‘em all up and see who wins
Who do you think would have more, me or you?

Feeling sorry might work, but not for long
We don’t have that luxury of time
Got an idea, might help us both
And it starts with a question of mine

CHORUS
What can I do for you today
How can I help in some small way
It would be such a gift to me, it’s true
If you’d let me do one little thing for you

What can I do

There’s a whole lotta things that I can’t make
I can’t build a house or meditate
But I know there’s one thing I can create
I can make some time

Tho the older I get, the faster it flies
I spend it like crazy, no surprise
But when my pockets are empty, and my credit’s declined
I’ll know that at least I gave you some time

CHORUS

It’s a noisy and crazy earth out there
We are neighbors in crisis everywhere
Just in case you were thinking no one caresSomeone may prove you wrong

People all over this world need love
Some won’t be lucky to get enough
That’s why I’m hoping that you’ll understand
How we’ll both get ahead if I give you a hand

CHORUS
