=================================================
Head under water
and they tell me
to breathe easy for a while
And 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 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 break in this
If you're on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay eh
All you have is leaving then
I need a better reason to
write you a love song today
today
I learnt the hard way
That they all say
things you wanna 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 break in this
If you're on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay eh
If all you have is leaving then
I need a better reason to
write you a love song today
Promise me
You'll leave the light on
Help me see
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 not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's
make or break in this
Is that what you want in 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 break in this
If you're on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay eh
If your heart is nowhere in it
I don't 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
today
today
