"What He Does" lyrics

Daisies on the nightstand
Boots out by the porch
When I say I love you
He says I love you more
He keeps that book wide open
And lets his feelings show
Puts pieces back together
I didn't even know were broke

You said I was asking too much
But if you did what he does
Oh, he makes it look so easy
Why the hell was it so tough

If you loved like he loves
Oh, just like that I'd have never had
A reason to run
And I'd die before I'd go back to that life
But sometimes I wonder what it might be like
If you did what he does

He smiles in all our pictures
Knows where he wants to be
Wears that tattooed scripture
And his heart right on his sleeve
He don't say I'm asking too much
If you did what he does
Oh, he makes it look so easy
Why the hell was it so tough

If you loved like he loves
Oh, just like that I'd have never had
A reason to run
And I'd die before I'd go back to that life
But sometimes I wonder what it might be like
If you did what he does

I'd still wonder why you couldn't
And it used to make me cry
Now I don't have to wonder
And I'm sleeping next to why

If you did what he does
Oh, he makes it look so easy
Why the hell was it so tough
If you loved like he loves
Just like that I'd have never had
A reason to run

And I'd die before I'd go back to that life
But sometimes I wonder what it might be like
If you did what he does
