What Do I Have To Do?
Ross Lynch Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Listen
You've got them all hypnotized
Dragging them round by the eyes
Oh
They're lined up shoulder to shoulder
Like dominoes you keep knockin them over
And all the fools got diamond rings just waiting for you
And I can fool myself but we both know it's true

Cause you walk into the room
Girl you know you got it
Baby look around you got a lot of options
What do I have to do
What do I have to do
You're looking like a queen
Walking through the palace
Falling on my knees
Afraid we're losing balance
What do I have to do
To be the latest choice

Oh
Oh yeah

You're lips got me
Wondering why
I'm tangled in lame
Pick up lines

Oh

Something is takin over
You got my heart set on a
Roller coaster
I'm chasing you around
You got your leash
On me too
I Wish that I could fool myself but we both know it's true

Cause you walk into the room
Girl you know you got it
Baby look around you got a lot of options
What do I have to do
What do I have to do
You're looking like a queen
Walking through the palace
Falling on my knees
Afraid we're losing

What do I have to do ooo

See I will fly you to paris
I'll even learn the language
Vous avez de trиs beaux yeux
Oo do beautiful
Climb the Eiffel tower
Touch the moon and call it ours yeah
Cause it'll never shine as bright as you

When you walk into the room
I never had a chance
Tell me what do I have to do
What do I have to do

Cause you walk into the room
Girl you know you got it
Baby Look around you got a lot of options
What do I have to do
What do I have to do
You're looking like a queen
Walking through the palace
Falling on my knees
Afraid we're losing balance
What do I have to do ooo
To be the latest choice





Ooo
