Doing the Best I Can (Escape from Berlin)

It was one for you...it was three for me

It was very nice...it was everything

So here it is..in little pieces...

I just played the part...I didn't win or lose

Maybe next time I'll think about how I'm feeling...

'Cause I'm doing the best that I can

And the whispered secrets...go on and on

No one says anything to anyone

You watch after her...and your word is law

She thought she was out there...but nobody saw

I didn't win or lose...I just threw the cards

But I paid a price for it...

And it's alright, baby...I'm doing the best that I can

And I'm trying hard to change...I'm doing the best that I can

Well because fate causes fortune and fortune takes i away

Well it's alright, baby...I'm doing the best that I can

I was silent...I was locked away

But I covered my tears...

Silent all day

It's out of my hands here

In my distress...well I wanted someone to blame me

In my devastation...I wanted so to change

In my way...disaster was the only thing that I could depend on...

But it's alright, baby...I'm doing the best that I can

Yes it's alright, baby...I'm doing the best that I can

Because fate causes fortune and fortune takes it away

And then fortune cause nightmares...nightmares that make you crazy

It's alright, baby...I'm doing the best that I can

It's alright, baby...I'm doing the best that I can

Oh he says. "Well I hear you're doing fine and you're doing the best that you can."

Well he says. "Oh, I hear you're doing fine and you're doing the best that you can."

Ooh she says, "It's alright, baby...I'm doing the best that I can."

Yes it's alright, baby...I'm doing the best that I can

Oh and he says, "I hear you're doing fine and you're doing the best that you can."

Oh and he says, "Ooh I hear she's doing fine and she's doing the best that she can."

Oh and I paid a price for it...

I'm doing the best that I can...
