Gordon Lightfoot - I'll Do Anything lyrics

I've been on my own for so long as I stand here today

I'd never leave you

I'll do anything that you say

I've been around some walking on the down street

Feeling as low as the shoes on the soles of my feet

Taking dead aim on fortune and fame you might say

Playing guitar doesn't make you a star anyway

Many's the time I've wished that I were free

But my love for you was too deep for my eyes to see

I'd never leave you

I'll do anything that you say

Whenever the thought seems better off left alone

I think of you then in a way that is ten times as strong

Taking dead aim on fortune and fame you might say

Playing guitar doesn't make you a star anyway

I'd never leave you, I'll do anything that you say

Try to believe me, I'll do anything that you say

Though it might never grieve me, I'll do anything that you say

Please understand me, I'll do anything that you say
