story behind the song: favourite saying of a friend of mine, and since this is one of her least favourite music styles, and it is her birthday i couldn't resist. might make a good mellow drinking song for the day.
Lyrics
when a heart is heavy
like a mother's for her child
the days turn dreary
like its been for awhile
don't know what to say
or what is truth
the only thing left
is you do you
when the eyes aren't smiling
nor are they mad
the days start wiling
away into sad
don't know what not to say
nor what isn't true
the only thing left
is you do you
when you're mad at the world
for everthing gone wrong
the days get so boring
listening to this song
don't trust anyone
nor ever want to
well the only thing left
is you do you
when a heart is aching
like a parent's loving one
the day's lost to gloaming
like smiles in the sun
don't know where to run
or if you want to
the only thing left
is you do you
don't know what to say
but knowing life's cruel
well don't ever believe in
only you do you
