I Don't Know What To Do

I don't know what to do
I don't know what to say
I want to help you through this
But I just can't see a way

I want to love you
I want to care
But you make that hard to do
Because I can't always be there

I have problems of my own
I have things I have to do
I want to help
But can't always be here for you

You have so much in your life
Things you shouldn't have to go through
I want to say it will be alright
But I just can't to lie to you

I feel selfish that I can't help
It breaks me to see you broken
I want to make things alright
But my words remain unspoken

I don't know what so say
To make everything right
I want us to live a perfect life
But that’s no where in sight

I want someone to give me the answers
And tell me the reasons why
Someone to get me through this
And help me live this lie

We both need someone to help us out
In all our times of despair
Someone to hold and love us
Someone to always be there

I want to be that person for you
But you really make that hard
Most people slowly open up
Not completely drop their guard

I've only known you for a short time
But you've told me your life story
Every detail and every song
Every bad time and glory

You want me to open up
So you can help me too
But I'm afraid it will put to much
On what you already go through

I’m going through so much
To much for me to bare
Your problems are way too much
For you I can't be there

I cannot carry the load of two
I'm to weak and torn apart
I really can't stand to see you like this
Its tearing up my heart

You need someone to help you
Someone more capable than I
For I can take it no longer
Listening to you cry

I've done all that I can do
But you keep asking me for more
I have nothing left to give
But your problems still forever soar

What more can I give
When I cannot even help me
But yet you keep asking me to be there
Every problem followed by a plea

I don't know what to do
I don't know what to say
I want to help you through this
But I just can't see a way

I want to love you
I want to care
But you make that hard to do
Because I can't always be there
