head under water
and they tell me to breathe easy for awhile
the breathing gets harder
even i know that
made room for me
it's too soon to see
if i'm happy in your hands
i'm unusually hard to hold on to
blank stairs
and blank pages
no easy way to say this
ypu 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 breakin this
and you're on your way
i'm not gonna write you
to stay
if all you jave is leavin
i'm a need a better reason to write you
a love song today
today
i learned the hard way
that they all say
things you wanna hear
and my heavy heart sings 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 me 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 write you a love song
cause you tell me it's make or breakin this
if you're on your way
i'm not gonna write you to stay
if all you have is leavin
i'm a need a better reason
to write you a love song
today
promise me
that 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 won't write you a love song
cause you asked for it
cause you need one
you see
i'm noit gonna write you a love song
cause you tell me it's
make or breakin 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 breakin this
if you're on your way
i'm not gonna write you to stay
if your heart is nowhere in it
i dont want it for a minute
babe, i'll walk the seven seas when i believe
that there's a reason to write you a love song
today
