What Can I Do
John Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Who'll say he had it easy
Had it made in fact
Before he'd even begun
But they don't know the things I know
I was always with him
It may sound strange
We were more than friends
It's hard to tell the truth
When no one wants to listen
When no one really cares
What's going on
And it's hard to stand alone
When you need someone beside you
Your spirit and your faith
They must be strong
What one man can do is dream
What one man can do is love
What one man can do is change the world
And make it young again
Here you see what one man can do
As shaded as his eyes might be
That's how bright his mind is
That's how strong his love
For you and me
A friend to all the universe
Grandfather of the future
And everything I would like to be
What one man can do is dream
What one man can do is love
What one man can do is change the world
And make it young again
Here you see what one man can do
What one man can do is dream
What one man can do is love
What one man can do is change the world
And make it young again
Here you see what one man can do
In John's song "What Can I Do," the lyrics speak to the admiration and reverence for someone who has had a profound impact on the world.

However, the singer knows a different side of this individual as they were always by their side, indicating a deep connection and understanding.

I suppose that there are those
There are people who believe
Who'll say he had it easy

Achieved success easily

They are unaware of what I know
I was always with him
I was constantly by his side

It might seem unusual

Our bond was stronger than friendship
