Head under water
And they tell me to breathe
easy for a while
The breathing gets harder
even I know that
You made room for me
but 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 breaking this
If you're on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
If all you have is leaving
I'm gonna need a better
reason to write you
a love song today

I learned the hard way
That they all say things
you want to hear
And 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 breaking this
If you're on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
If all you have is leaving
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 breaking 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'll walk the seven
seas when I believe
that there's a reason to
Write you a love song today
