Love Song

Head underwater, and you tell me
To breathe easy for a while
The breathing gets harderEven 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 ask for it
′Cause you need one
You see, I′m not gonna write you a long 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

(Hey, hey, hey, today!
Hey, hey, hey, today!)

I learnt the hard way
That they all say
The things you wanna hear
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
The daylight my guide, gone
'Cause I believe
That there′s a way
You can love me
Because I say

I won't write you a love song
′Cause you ask 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 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
