I'd Do Anything (A Song for Carly) Lyrics

I'll never understand some things in life,
Why loyal souls are lost under heaven's watchful eye.
I got the who, what, where, and when, but I wanna know why
Such a shining light can vanish out of sight.

I'll never understand why you cried,
And you just couldn't see the truth, oh how I tried,
To make you see the girl standing by my side,
And I'd do anything to make you realize.

Take you round the world on a butterfly,
Paint your name across the sky,
Color the ocean gold into a velvet tide,
Cause I'd do anything to make you change your mind.

And I'll never understand the loneliness held within,
I was always there, that's how it's always been.
You opened up to me and I let you in.
If that was all it took, I'd do it over and over again.

(Repeat)

Tell me what I gotta do,
I said anything, it's true,
Ohhhh

Take you round the world on a butterfly,
Paint your name across the sky,
Color the ocean gold into a velvet tide,
Cause I'd do anything,
I'd do anything, I'd do anything,
I'd do anything, anything to make you change your mind.
