I've looked everywhere I can Just to find a clue Oh to get to you And make you want me And I've run circles around the sun Chasin' after you Oh but it's no use Can't you see that I'm going out of my mind Trying to find a way to get through to you Oh you don't know how hard I try And I try and I try What do I gotta do Do I gotta get water from the moon What do I gotta do To make you love me Do I gotta turn the sand into the sea Is that what you want from me I've done everything that I can do But get water from the moon I've reached high up in the sky Tryin' to steal the stars Oh to win your heart But even that's not enough And I've searched every book I know Just to find the words Oh to touch your world and get some love out of you I've already given all I can give And I don't know what's left to try And I try and I try What do I gotta do Do I gotta get water from the moon, Love me, how do I make you love me How do I make you see that I'm going out of my mind I try, and I try, and I try Do I gotta get water from the moon What do I gotta do To make you love me Do I gotta turn the sand into the sea Is that what you want from me I've done everything that I can do But get water from the moon
