I Don't Know What to Do with You, Joe

I don't know what to do with you, Joe

I've been loving you all of these years

And the moments all go by so slow

When I think of the joy and the love and the tears

I don't know what to do with you, Joe

When we're friends I can't help but want more

And when we're out of touch, I still miss you so much

And I wonder what the hell I'm still doing this for

And I sure as hell won't have your babies

And I don't wanna be someone's wife

And when it comes to love, I can't say it comes easy

I don't know what I need, except you in my life

I've got some big plans and I've got a career

And I'm pining for you darling, year after year

I want you to stay and I want you to go

I don't know what to do with you, Joe

I tried thinking 'bout work, I tried sleeping around

I tried writing a song, I tried leaving town

My brother said, "Don't waste your love on that man."

So I tried to forget you the best that I can

Cuz you never asked me to love you

So maybe it's all in my head

Maybe I'm just taking orders

From the voice in my gut that wants you in my bed

I'm tired of thinking 'bout you every night,

Or when I'm feeling cold, or when the chord is just right

I'm tired of feeling like I oughta know

I don't know what to do with you, Joe

And if you ever loved me, then please tell me so

I don't know what to do with you, Joe
