IT'S ALL I CAN DO
(Ric Ocasek)

The Cars-Ric Ocasek - 1979


one too many times I fell over you
once in a shadow I finally grew
and once in a night I dreamed you were there
I canceled my flight from going nowhere

it's all I can do
to keep waiting for you
it's all I can do
it's all I can do
(it's all I can do)

one too many times I twisted the gate
when I was crazy I thought you were great
I kept my renditions of you on the wall
where holiday romance is nothing at all

it's all I can do
to keep waiting for you
it's all I can do
it's all I can do
(it's all I can do)

you wait in the wing like a Saturday flirt
protecting the judge, you don't want to get hurt
once in a moment it all comes to you
as soon as you get it you want something new

it's all I can do
to keep waiting for you
it's all I can do
it's all I can do
(it's all I can do)

it's all I can do
to keep waiting for you
it's all I can do
it's all I can do
(it's all I can do)

it's all I can do
to keep waiting for you
it's all I can do
it's all I can do
(it's all I can do)
