Head under water
And they tell me
to breathe easy for a while
But breathing gets harder
Even I know that
You 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 breakin' this
If you're on your way
I'm not gonna write you
to stay
If all you have is leavin'
I'm gonna need a better
reason to write you
a love song today
Yeah eah yeah eah eah
I learned the hard way
That they all say
things you wanna hear
And my heavy heart
sinks deep down under
You and your twisted words
Your help just hurts
You are not who
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 breakin' this
If you're on your way
I'm not gonna write you
to stay
If all you have is leavin'
I'm gonna 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 not 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 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 ay ay ay
Yeah eah eah eah eah
