Letter
Lyrics by David Cameron Anderson, Davecamson Music ASCAP
Music by David Cameron Anderson & Lem Jay Ignacio
I make my money in
a fast food store
I know we wanted for me so much more
It pays the rent I sometimes like it too
I can do what I can do
I heard your message
on my answer phone
I'll have to call you when my mind's alone
It could be later than a day or two
I can do.I can do what I can do
I won't apologize
for who I love
He's a gift to me from God above
I'm sad my loving disagrees with you
But I can do what I can do
I'm scared then sorry
when I raise my voice
I state my sense of true then I see no choice
I know it's little more than point of view
But I can do what I can do
With no excuses and
no place among the saints
Just growing older than my mirror paints
Too young to notice
when your brother died
He left you lonely by the way you cried
We know how hard it's been to fill his shoe
I can do what I can do
And as I watch you
go in slow degrees
From disappointments that no other sees
Oh, have another drink. I'll have one too
I can do what I can do
And though it's not
been easy loving you
I can do.
