How Should I Feel? [Tommy Shaw]

How Should I Feel
Written by Tommy Shaw and Jack Blades
Lead Vocals by Tommy Shaw

I've been thinking about your number
In the middle of the night
Trying to remember
From somewhere in my head
Without turning on the light

Everybody has an answer
To this problem that I have
Yeah it seems so easy
Tumbling from their lips
I just have to laugh

I call your name
And I am healed
I look for an answer
Tell me how should I feel

I've been pulling out your pictures
Now I pulling out my hair
And I'm looking for the answer
In the bottom of a bottle
But I can't find it there

I call your name
And I am healed
I look for an answer
Tell me how should I feel
I'd love to ask you tonight
But your lips are sealed
If I can't be lonely tonight
Tell me how should I feel

I would love to change the world
And I would love to change the world
And I would love to

I call your name
And I am healed
I look for an answer
Tell me how should I feel
I'd love to ask you tonight
But your lips are sealed
If I can't be lonely tonight
Tell me how should I feel

If I could change the world tonight
If I could change the world tonight
If I could change the world tonight
If I could change the world tonight

I would love to change the world
Love to change the world

Interpretation

I have a problem that I'm struggling with. Others think they have the easy answer, but they don't. I've turned to drinking, but that didn't help. You're the only one that can help me. If I can talk to you, I can get through this. Right now you won't talk to me, but I need you to tell me how I should feel. If you can help me get through this, I can change the world.
