Van Halen - Don't Tell Me (what Love Can Do) lyrics

rate me

It's ok, I'll do what I want

If I choose, I can take the fall

There's a choice

It's my destiny

In my hands

Yeah, it's up to me

I can drive

I can shoot a gun in the streets

Score me some heroin

I can jump

Be the sacrifice

Bear the cross just like Jesus Christ

And I don't wanna hear

What love can do

No, I ain't gonna tell ya

What's right for you

Is it right to take the easy way

Close your eyes

Get on your knees an' pray

Now you're saved by a higher voice

Givin' up, givin' up, givin' up your choice

If I'm wrong, then I'll pay for it

If I'm right, yeah you're gonna hear about it

But I've tried, yeah, I've tried for it

I tried, I tried, 'til I'm satisfied

And I...

I'm tried of hearing what love can do

And I...

Ain't gonna tell you what's right for you

I've seen the damage done

Down with the shotgun

Don't stop the setting sun on my kingdom come

ohhh...

Is it right to take the easy way

I don't know, I get on my knees an' pray

Now I'm saved by a higher voice

Givin' up, givin' up, givin' up your choice

If I'm wrong, then I'll pay for it

If I'm right, yeah

Your gonna deal with it

'Cause I tried, yeah I tried for it

I'll try, I'll try, even die for it

No I...

Don't wanna hear what love can do

No I...

I can't tell ya what's right for you

Oh I... I... I...

Tell you what love can do

No I... I... I...

Can't say but your time is through

I've seen the damage done

Oh Lord, I've heard the shotgun

I fought the setting sun

On my kingdom come

Ohhh...

Don't tell me what love can do

Hey, hey, hey

Don't tell me what love can do

Hey, hey, hey
