Why don't you tell me what it is that you want
I'll tell you where it is that you should look
Don't think I don't know so much about you, boy
Just because I never came and done all your book

You can play love like it's some kind of game
I never wanted, never needed but get a page in your book
Yeah, but how many times do I have to tell you, sweetheart
Just what it told

Well, if you'd only do right by me
If you'd only do right by me
Well, if you'd only do right by me
Then I'd do all right by you

Once you had a candle in the palm of your hand
Help you light up your way down to the coast
It brought you shelter from the howling night
Just when you needed it the most

You can make out to get as lost as you please
And that you like the way it feels
And it feels just like a ghost
How many times you gonna play this scene out
When you know the way it goes

Yeah, if you'd only do right by me
Well, if you'd only do right by me
Yeah, if you'd only do right by me
Then I'd do all right by you

Saw you smiling, you thought you had crossed the line
Only to realise you never left the star
Well, I know you won't admit it baby
But I can see it's breaking your heart

Well, if you'd only do right by me
If you'd only do right by me
Well, if you'd only do right by me
Well, I'd do all right by you

Yeah, if you'd only do right by me
If you'd only do right by me
Yeah, if you'd only do right by me
Baby, I'd do alright by you
