The first words that come out
And I can see
this song will be about you
I can`t believe
that I can breathe without you
But all I need to do is carry on

The next line I write down
And there`s a tear that falls
between the pages
I know that pain`s supposed
to heal in stages
But it depends which one
I`m standing on

I write lines down
then rip them up
Describing love
can`t be this tough

I could set this song on fire
send it up in smoke
I could throw it in the river
and watch it sink in slowly

Tie the pages to a plane
and send it to the moon
Play it for the world
but it won`t mean much
Unless I sing this song to you

I`m dying to show you
This could end happily ever after
There doesn`t ever have
to be disaster
And all you have
to do is sing along

I write lines down
then rip them up
Impossible describing love

I could set this song on fire
send it up in smoke
I could throw it in the river
and watch it sink in slowly

Tie the pages to a plane
and send it to the moon
Play it for the world
but it won`t mean much
Unless I sing this song to you


I could set this song on fire
Sing this song to you
I could set this song on fire

Light this old guitar on fire
I`d still hear the notes
Drown the melody in water
I`d still hear its ghost

Sing it with somebody else
but we`d be out of tune
Play it for the world
but it won`t mean much
I could set this song on fire

send it up in smoke
I could throw it in the river
and watch it sink in slowly
Tie the pages to a plane
and send it to the moon
Play it for the world
but it won`t mean much
Unless I sing this song to you
I could set this song on fire
Unless I sing this song to you
I could set this I could set this
I want to sing this song to you
I could set this song on fire
Sing this song to you
I could set this I could set this
