How Do You Do Lyrics

We sat and watched a new day melt 'til dawn.
Had my share of memories now it's time to move on.
Another lonely lesson never turned out wrong.
These things I've done without you - should have never been done.
Call on me and I'll shout down.

How do you do when I'm not around?
How do you do when I'm not around?

I've never felt this wrong and now I know.
This love was burning through me though it never did show.
Let's spend tonight together kissing stars below.
We'll hide inside each other - never let you go.
Call on me and I'll shout down.

How do you do when I'm not around?
How do you do when I'm not around?

(guitar solo)

Call on me and I'll shout down.

How do you do when I'm not around?
How do you do when I'm not around?
How do you do when I'm not around?
How do you do when I'm not around?
How do you do when I'm not around?
How do you do when I'm not around?
How do you do when I'm not around?
How do you do when I'm not around?
How do you do when I'm not around?
How do you do when I'm not around?

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This was recorded in late 1996, and features Dave playing all the instruments like he did on the first album.

This song is available on the Soundtrack for the movie "Touch".
