What Can I Do
Kindbergs Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To bring the magic back, like it used to be?
Starting again has proved much harder than
we both thought it would be
Well, I was just wondering
So what can I do to make things brighter?
To turn the light back on
'cause the flame is just a flicker
Weekend in Paris, dinner and a show
Take a road-trip down the Highway one
with no real place to go
Take some brand new pictures, not yet faded
Start the love again and celebrate it
Me and you
What can I do?
What can I do to add some sparkle
To bring a tingle back, when I touch your hand?
Every day is getting darker now
Are the shadows of the past, all that's left somehow?
What can I do to bring your smile back
when you're holding me?
'cause the flame is just a flicker
It's not what it used to be
Weekend in Paris, dinner and a show
We'll go fishing in Alaska
Tickets to the Superbowl
Take some brand new pictures, not yet faded
start the love again and celebrate it
Me and you
What can I do?
Pack the bags, lock the door
I know we felt this way before
When it was only you and me
It's not so out of reach
Weekend in Paris, we don't really need to go
A glass of wine by the fire-place
could restart that old glow
Take some brand new pictures, not yet faded
Start the love again and celebrate it
just me and you
Me and you
That's what we should do
That's what we should do
