I Don’t Wanna Write You a Love Song
Who’s gonna write you a love song,
Who’s gonna sing it to your soul,
Who’s gonna lay beside you,
Long after this Rock and Roll,
I never said, it was gonna be easy,
But it sure don’t have to be this hard,
You say we come from different worlds,
I can still, feel you in my heart.
I just wanna write you a love song,
I don’t wanna make you cry,
I just want to tell you I love ya,
I don’t wanna say goodbye.
I try not to look down your street,
‘cause I don’t go there anymore,
This ship’s been set adrift,
Unto a distant shore,
You said you’d never give up,
You said we weren’t like them,
But I guess when push comes to love,
Nobody really can win
I don’t wanna write you a love song,
With a teardrop in my eye,
I don’t wanna say that I loved ya,
I don’t wanna say goodbye.
I just wanna say that I love you,
A little more, everyday,
I guess, I just, still love you,
And It’s hard to watch it slip away.
I hope he writes you a love song,
I hope he doesn’t make you cry,
I hope he tells you you’re beautiful,
And sings to you at night.
I don’t wanna write you a love song,
With a teardrop in my eye,
I don’t wanna say that I loved ya,
I don’t wanna say goodbye.
