You've known me forever, but you don't know me well
I was on the sidelines every time you fell
And I watched the bastards break your heart and never give a damn
I've finally seen enough, so here I am

Ah, but what could be my chances with a girl like you?
I don't look too fancy, I don't live the way you do
So, I guess it's tough to imagine me, this perfect kinda guy
But I've got to make this move, or I may die

Is there nothing I can do darlin'?
Is there nothing I can say?
Is there nothing I can do darlin'
To make you wanna stay here with me now, baby?

I don't know how to say this, I'm a nervous wreck
But I know your lonely laughter and the sweet curve of your neck
And I'm pretty sure I know the woman that you've come to be
And I know that if she'd have me, she'd be everything to me

Is there nothing I can do darlin'?
Is there nothing I can say?
Is there nothing I can do darlin'
To make you wanna stay here with me now, baby?

I've already held you tight
We've already talked all night
I have brought you comfort on your darkest day
All my sad rehearsing, please don't turn away

Is there nothing I can do darlin'?
Is there nothing I can say?
Is there nothing I can do darlin'
To make you wanna stay here with me now, baby?

Is there nothing I can do darlin'?
Is there nothing I can say?
Is there nothing I can do darlin'
To make you wanna stay here with me now, baby?
