You Do
A. K. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You got a smile so bright
You know you could have been a candle
I'm holding you so tight
You know you could have been a handle
The way you swept me off my feet
You know you could've been a broom
And babe you smell so sweet
You know you could've been some perfume

Well you could of been anything that you wanted to
I can tell
The way you do the things you do

As pretty as you are
You know you could've been a flower
If good looks were minutes
You know you could have been an hour
The way you stole my heart
You know you could have been a crook
And baby your so smart
You know you could have been a school book

Well you could of been anything that you wanted to
I can tell
The way you do the things you do

Well you could of been

You make my life so rich
You know you could've been some money
And baby you're so sweet
You know you could have been some honey

Well you could of been anything that you wanted to
I can tell
The way you do the things you do

Well you could of been

As pretty as you are
You know you could've been a flower
If good looks were minutes
You know you could have been an hour
The way you stole my heart
You know you could have been a crook
And baby your so smart
You know you could have been a school book

Well you could of been anything that you wanted to
I can tell
The way you do the things you do





Well you could of been

If you ever thought giving your enemy billions in military equipment and then giving them ransom money masquerading as “aid” was a bad idea, go ahead and hit that subscribe button.

Arturo Bernal

Da, like 30yrs of gas sales to Deutchland

@Cho Bai you sound like a Taliban! Maybe the US should have given more money to the Taliban after leaving, you know in the form of "humanitarian aid"..... taxpayer money put to great use!
