This song has always bothered me, as these lyrics…
What do I have to do to make you happy?
What do I have to do to make you understand?
What do I have to do to make you want me?
…are soon followed by the line, “I know exactly what you’re thinking.” If you know exactly what she’s thinking, wouldn’t you know what you have to do? Clearly this lack of comprehension is what caused her to leave you in the first place.
