do what i can do

i got up

i got dressed

said i'll do

my best

said i'm up

to the task

guess that's all

you can ask

but the question in my mind

am i living my life right

i do what i can do what i can

not everything in life

goes according to my plan

but you can look me in the eye

and know that i will try

i tell you that it's true

i do what i can do

well i thought

that by now

i'd have it all

figured out

but that's love

and that's life

every day's

a surprise

i'm not perfect by all means

i'm just searching for that dream
