Don't Know What To Do
Rachel Alejandro Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I know that there will come a time
To feel this feeling I have inside
You're a hopeless romantic is what they say
Falling in and out of love just like a play
Memorizing each line, I still don't know what to say
What to say...
Don't know what to say, my heart is floating in tears
When you pass by I could fly
Ev'ry minute, ev'ry second of the day
I dream of you in the most special way
You're beside me all the time
All the time...
I have loved you and I always will
Call it crazy but I know someday you'll feel
This feeling I have for you inside
I'm a hopeless romantic I know I am
Memorized all the lines and here I am
Struggling for words I still don't know what to say
What to say...
Don't know what to do whenever you are near
Don't know what to say, my heart is floating in tears
When you pass by I could fly
Ev'ry minute, ev'ry second of the day
I dream of you in the most special way
You're beside me all the time
All the time... all the time... all the time
The song "Don't Know What to Do" by Rachel Alejandro is a ballad about unrequited love, sung from the perspective of someone who has a deep admiration and love for another person but cannot find the right words to express their feelings. The lyrics delve into the complexities of infatuation as the singer struggles with their emotions and their fear of rejection when it comes to approaching the object of their desire.
The first verse sets the tone of the song as the singer confesses that they have only loved this person in their mind, but they know that eventually, they will have to confront their feelings. The second verse reveals that the singer is a "hopeless romantic," someone who falls in love easily but struggles to express their emotions verbally. The chorus repeats the refrain of feeling lost and unsure around the other person, unsure of what to do or say when they are near.
The bridge provides a glimmer of hope as the singer admits that they love the other person deeply and believes that someday, they will feel the same way. The chorus is repeated, with the added sentiment that the other person is always on the singer's mind, in every moment of the day.
Overall, the lyrics of "Don't Know What to Do" capture the feeling of being enamored with someone but unable to express oneself fully for fear of rejection or vulnerability. It speaks to the experience of many who have been in similar situations and shows the power of emotional honesty in songwriting.

I have loved you only in my mind
I have had feelings for you without expressing them
But I know that there will come a time
I believe that we will eventually have a chance to be together
To feel this feeling I have inside
To finally express my love for you
You're a hopeless romantic is what they say
Others label me as someone who is in love with love
Falling in and out of love just like a play
My emotions are constantly shifting like a theatrical performance
Memorizing each line, I still don't know what to say
Even though I know how I feel, I struggle to put it into words
Don't know what to do whenever you are near
I am so overwhelmed by my emotions that I am unsure how to act
Don't know what to say, my heart is floating in tears
I am so moved by your presence that I am on the verge of tears
When you pass by I could fly
Your mere presence has the power to lift my spirits
Ev'ry minute, ev'ry second of the day
I am constantly thinking of you
I dream of you in the most special way
My love for you fuels my dreams at night
You're beside me all the time
Even when you are not physically present, you are always in my thoughts
I have loved you and I always will
My feelings for you are unwavering
Call it crazy but I know someday you'll feel
I have faith that one day you will reciprocate my feelings
I'm a hopeless romantic I know I am
I am aware of my tendencies to be swept up in romance
Memorized all the lines and here I am
Despite knowing the words I should say, I still struggle to express myself
Struggling for words I still don't know what to say
Even with all the words at my disposal, I cannot fully convey my feelings for you
All the time...
My love for you is constant and unchanging

yeah..... i'm in love with you MR.7B. FIRST.... I'd like to THANK YOU for a SWEET MOMENT. SECOND.... I was so surprised when you KISSED ME but all I really wanna do is to hug you tight to let you know that you stole my heart. I've no regrets really. Until now I'M SHOCK, I FEEL LIKE I'M DREAMING? But those DREAMS turn into REALITY. Don't be afraid of me if you think that I'm mad at you and I DON'T EXPECT YOU TO LOVE ME IN RETURN. SO MANY QUESTIONS...DON'T KNOW WHERE COULD I FIND THE ANSWERS?.
