What've I gotta do
To make you love me
What've I gotta do
To make you care

What do I do when
Lightning strikes me
And I wake to find
That you're not there

What do I do 
To make you want me
What've I gotta do
To be heard

What do I say
When it's all over
And sorry seems to be
The hardest word

It's sad, so sad
Oh, it's a sad, sad situation
And it's getting more
And more absurd

It's sad, so sad
Why can't we talk it over
Oh, it seems to me
That sorry seems to be
The hardest word

---- Instrumental Interlude ----

It's sad, so sad
It's a sad, sad situation
And it's getting more
And more absurd

It's sad, so sad
Why can't we talk it over
Oh, it seems to me
That sorry seems to be
The hardest word

What do I do to
Make you love me
Oh, what've I gotta do 
To be heard

What do I do when
Lightning strikes me
What've I gotta do
What've I gotta do
Sorry seems to be
The hardest word
