Head under water
And they tell me
to breathe easy
for a while
The breathing
gets harder
even I know that
You made room for me
but its too soon to see
If I'm happy in your hands
I'm unusually
hard to hold on to
Blank stares at blank pages
No easy way to say this
You mean well
but you make this
hard... on me
I'm not gonna write
you a love song
'Cause you asked for it
'Cause you
need one, you see
I'm not gonna write
you a love song
'Cause you tell me it's
Make or breaking this
If you are on your way
I'm not gonna write
you to stay...
If all you have is leaving
I'm gonna need
a better reason
to write you
a love song today
Today, yeah
I learned the hard way
That they all say
things you want to hear
My heavy heart
sinks deep down...
under... you
And your twisted words
your help just hurts
You are not what
I thought you were
Hello to high and dry
Convinced me
to please you
Made me think
that I need this too
I'm trying to let you
hear me as I am
I'm not gonna write
you a love song
'Cause you asked for it
'Cause you
need one, you see
I'm not gonna write
you a love song
'Cause you tell me it's
Make or breaking this
If you are on your way
I'm not gonna write
you to stay...
If all you have is leaving
I am gonna need
a better reason
to write you
a love song today
Promise me
you'll leave the light on
To help me see
with daylight
my guide, gone
'Cause I believe
there's a way
you can love me
because I say
I'm won't write
you a love song
Cause you asked for it
'Cause you
need one, you see
I'm not gonna write
you a love song
'Cause you tell me it's
Make or breaking this
Is that why you
wanted a love song
'Cause you asked for it
'Cause you
need one you see
I'm not gonna write
you a love song
'Cause you tell me it's
make or breaking this
If you're on your way
I'm not gonna write
you to stay...
If your heart
is nowhere in it
I don't want it
for a minute
Babe, I walk
the seven seas
when I believe
that there's a reason to
Write you a love song
today, today... yeah...
