Did somebody try to catch your eye And almost change your sad expression? Did somebody's hand linger too long? Must I now make my confession? But you'll never know What suspicion is Until you lie awake And every night you ask yourself "What am I to do?" Can it be so hard to calculate? When three goes into two There's nothing left over How's it gonna feel? This time it's real It's not a temporary fracture This is what you get, the stage is set For you and your attempted rapture Is he gonna smile That indulgent smile When you come running home? And every night you ask yourself, "What am I to do?" Can it be so hard to calculate? When three goes into two There's nothing left over What am I gonna say? You turn away And you leave me here despairing What am I going to do? I look at you You seem to be so long past caring Did somebody say, "Can we still be friends?" Only to find out now that it's a joke So ask yourself, "What am I to do?" Can it be so hard to calculate? When three goes into two There's nothing left over Did somebody say, "Can we still be friends?" Did somebody say, "Can we still be friends?" Did somebody say, "Can we still be friends?" Did somebody say, "Can we still be friends?" Did somebody say, "Can we still be friends?" Did somebody say, "Can we still be friends?"
