You make it hard to breathe
It's as if I'm suffocating
And when you're next to me
I can feel your heartbeat through my skin
It makes me sad to think
This all could be for nothing
I wish there was a way
For you to see inside of me
I've never felt this way
About anyone or anything
Tell me
What do I have to do to make you happy?
What do I have to do to make you understand?
What do I have to do to make you want me?
And, if I can't make you want me
What do I have to do?
I know exactly what you're thinking
But I swear this time I will not let you down
I'm not as selfish as I used to be
That was a part of me that never made me proud
Right now I think I would try anything
Anything at all to keep you satisfied
God I hope you see what loving you would do to me
All I want is one more chance, so tell me...
What do I have to do to make you love me?
It's as if I'm suffocating
And when you're next to me
I can feel your heartbeat through my skin
It makes me sad to think
This all could be for nothing
I wish there was a way
For you to see inside of me
I've never felt this way
About anyone or anything
Tell me
What do I have to do to make you happy?
What do I have to do to make you understand?
What do I have to do to make you want me?
And, if I can't make you want me
What do I have to do?
I know exactly what you're thinking
But I swear this time I will not let you down
I'm not as selfish as I used to be
That was a part of me that never made me proud
Right now I think I would try anything
Anything at all to keep you satisfied
God I hope you see what loving you would do to me
All I want is one more chance, so tell me...
What do I have to do to make you love me?

--->he is saying how much he cares for her and that its sad to think that my love for her might just be for nothing and that he is trying to tell her that it has never been like this before and the
cores
--->he is saying what do i have to do to keep you around because he loves her so much that he would just do anything just to keep her with him
Second part of the song
--->he is saying that look i know before that i was selfish and a jerk to you but i am telling you this time i have changed for you and i sitting her saying that i will do anything for you to just see how much i have changed and that i really hope you see how much i really dont want to loose and if i do then it will not be good {i have heard it so many times}
at the end of the song
--->he is saying what do i have to do to forget you because she is driving him crazy with not just seeing how much she really meant to him
i read the song and think thats sounds just like my relationship now...went out with a girl...would have given my life for her...then she realizes that she doesnt love me anymore...and now were working things out, but i feel exactly like the guy in the song..."what do i have to do"
oh, yeah-great song.
*points to lyrics above* says If I can't make you want me
Correct lyrics:
If I can make you love me
It's always good to have Stabbing Westward's breakup music to help you cope.
Hall said it himself. There is a live version of this song in which he says it in the intro
for me this song speaks of a very special relationship --exactly like this song and it was all for nothing
this song is so awesome you can feel the very passion that it's sang with
Powerful line, Stabbing Westward is the most underrated band of all time.
