Tryin to figure out which way i want this to go
Do i want it to be happy or sad or fast or slow
Tryin to work it out just what it is i feel
Do i wanna rock you shock you soothe you or move you
I just wanna write you in a song
Put your smile on paper so you can sing along
I just wanna bottle the sun
Keep your light a secret i can find when you are gone
Gone gone
When you are gone gone gone
You are like a beautiful tree
With roots in the ground so deep they could never be seen
Im a leaf that ' s ready to fall
And the wind ' s gonna blow me someday away from it all
CHORUS
I just wanna write you in a song
Put your smile on paper so you can sing along
I just wanna bottle the sun
Keep your light a secret i can find when you are gone
Gone gone
When you are gone gone gone
When you are gone gone gone
I just wanna write you in a song
Most people when they can ' t get away
It makes them more than a little crazy
Well i ' m the one that can never stay
But i ' ll always have you with me
I ' ll always have you with me in this song
CHORUS
I just wanna write you in a song
Put your smile on paper so you can sing along
I just wanna bottle the sun
Keep your light a secret i can find when you are gone
I just wanna write you in a song
Put your smile on paper so you can sing along
I just wanna bottle the sun
Keep your light a secret i can find when you are gone
Gone gone
When you are gone gone gone
When you are gone gone gone
I just wanna write you in a song
When you are gone gone gone
When you are gone gone gone
I just wanna write you in a song
