What Would Shakespeare Do?

I never meant to hurt you I never meant to desert you I would turn on all the city lights To brighten up your darkest night What would Shakespeare do? When he found himself in tragedy Will he build sympathy to melody? Then I would probably do what Shakespeare do I would never change the subject when you’re talking I would never complain about the way you’re walking If you’re mad at me just say it but don’t hate me I only have these mellow words to keep you close to me If I could swim I would cross the deepest ocean If I could sing I would sing a hundred love songs But I’m only human with words filled my empty mind Fall in love with the most beautiful man in the world Then what would Shakespeare do? When his heart is filled with love Would he write down the sweetest poem to his love? Then I would probably do what Shakespeare do When the night is dark I see the sun in your eyes Shining so bright that warming up my night It feels so cold inside but you warm me out Don’t you remember that? I feel so lonely when I sit without you in the park Feels empty like living alone in the dark I’ve been running around the town all night I just find out that the only thing I want is you My face may not be as pretty as a queen And all I have is this heart not a pile of gold But if you don’t want to come back to me for once more I would rip my heart out to show you how much I love you
