Lyrics

What! (Extended)

[Intro]

Do you want me to

Get down on my knees

Beg you baby, please

Cry a million tears

Do you want me to

Call you on the phone

Beg you to come home

Think of all the years

When I once lived in paradise

When the love light shone in your eyes

Oh baby

What can I do when I still love you

What can I say when I still want you

What can I do

What can I say

You'll never know this way

Do you want me to

Follow you around

Everywhere in town

Do you want a clown

Why do you

Treat me mean and cruel

Breaking every rule

Can I be your fool

We can make this a happy home

So come back where you belong

Oh baby

What can I do when I still love you

What can I say when I still want you

What can I do

What can I say

You'll never know this way

Please forgive me, come back, and then

We can fall in love

Over and over and over and over again

Oh baby

What can I do when I still love you

What can I say when I still want you

Won't you come back

Oh baby, what can I say

I said, what can I do

Oh baby, what can I say

I said, won't you come back

I said, won't you come back

I said, what can I do

I said, what can I say

I said, won't you come back

I said, won't you come back

Won't you come back

Oh baby, won't you come back

Oh baby, what can I say

I said, what, what, what...can I say

Won't you come back

Won't you come back

Won't you

Won't you come back

What can I say

What can I say

What can I do

What can I do

What can I say

What can I say

Won't you come back

Won't you come back

What can I do, do, do, do

What can I do

What, what, what...
