[00:08.43]Head under water
[00:11.19]And they tell me to breathe easy for a while
[00:16.21]The breathing gets harder, even I know that
[00:24.70]Made room for me but it's too soon to see
[00:28.79]If I'm happy in your hands
[00:31.86]I'm unusually hard to hold on to
[00:39.64]Blank stares at blank pages
[00:43.52]No easy way to say this
[00:47.52]You mean well, but you make this hard on me
[00:52.74]
[00:53.25]I'm not gonna write you a love song
[00:56.50]Cause you asked for it
[00:58.00]Cause you need one, you see
[01:01.14]I'm not gonna write you a love song
[01:03.87]Cause you tell me it's
[01:05.81]Make or break in this
[01:07.73]If you're on your way
[01:09.76]I'm not gonna write you to stay
[01:14.19]If all you have is leaving I'm gonna need a better
[01:17.19]Reason to write you a love song today
[01:22.63]
[01:30.46]I learned the hard way
[01:33.90]That they all say things you want to hear
[01:38.70]And my heavy heart sinks deep down under you and
[01:46.19]Your twisted words
[01:48.32]Your help just hurts
[01:50.72]You are not what I thought you were
[01:54.76]Hello to high and dry
[02:01.59]Convinced me to please you
[02:05.51]Made me think that I need this too
[02:09.42]I'm trying to let you hear me as I am
[02:14.78]
[02:15.23]I'm not gonna write you a love song
[02:17.98]Cause you asked for it
[02:19.90]Cause you need one, you see
[02:23.70]I'm not gonna write you a love song
[02:25.83]Cause you tell me it's
[02:27.80]Make or break in this
[02:29.71]If you're on your way
[02:31.74]I'm not gonna write you to stay
[02:36.90]If all you have is leaving I'm gonna need a better
[02:39.12]Reason to write you a love song today
[02:44.65]
[02:45.33]Promise me that you'll leave the light on
[02:52.66]To help me see with daylight, my guide, gone
[03:00.43]Cause I believe there's a way you can love me
[03:06.27]Because I say
[03:07.75]
[03:07.94]I won't write you a love song
[03:10.68]Cause you asked for it
[03:12.63]Cause you need one, you see
[03:15.74]I'm not gonna write you a love song
[03:18.46]Cause you tell me it's make or break in this
[03:22.87]Is that why you wanted a love song
[03:26.26]Cause you asked for it
[03:28.30]Cause you need one, you see
[03:31.30]I'm not gonna write you a love song
[03:34.10]Cause you tell me it's make or break in this
[03:37.99]If you're on your way
[03:40.10]I'm not gonna write you to stay
[03:44.32]If your heart is nowhere in it
[03:45.98]I don't want it for a minute
[03:47.91]Babe, I'll walk the seven seas when I believe that
[03:50.95]There's a reason to
[03:52.28]Write you a love song today
