Lyrics

[Verse 1]
What do I gotta do to make you love me?
(What I gotta do, what I gotta do now?)
What have I gotta do to make you care?
(Make you care, yeah-yeah-yay-yay-yeah)
What do I do when lightnin' strikes me?
And to wake to find that you're not there?
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
What do I do to make you want me, yeah?
What have I gotta do to be heard?
And what do I say when it's all over?
(All over, all over)
And sorry seems to be the hardest word
[Verse 3]
It's sad, so sad
It's a sad, sad situation
And it's getting more and more and more absurd
[Verse 4]
It's sad, so sad
Why can't we talk it over?
Whoa, it seems to me
That sorry seems to be, the hardest word
[Verse 5]
Whoa, oh
Oh
[Verse 6]
Sorry seems to be, always the hardest word
Oh
Oh
[Verse 7]
What do I gotta do to make you love me?
(What I gotta do, what do I gotta do now?)
What do I gotta do, to be heard?
And what do I do when lightnin', lightnin' strikes me?
What do I gotta do? What do I gotta do
When sorry seems to be the hardest word?
Written by: Bernie Taupin, Elton John
