I Wish I Could Write You A Song
[Verse 1]
I wish, I wish I could write you a song
I have been trying so long
Every rhyme feels wrong
I wish, I wish I could come up with words
Words that the world's never heard
But I can't even finish a verse

[Chorus]
A melody
With harmony
Soft and sweet
Sounds like what it feels like when you dance with me
It sways and bends
Like violins
And it never ends

[Verse 2]
I wish, I wish you could climb in my heart
Down where the real feelings are
You'd hear a real work of art
So please, come over here next to me
Lie in my arms silently
I'll show the things I can't sing

[Chorus]
A melody
With harmony
Soft and sweet
Sounds like what it feels like when you dance with me
It sways and bends
Like violins
And it never ends, never ends

[Outro]
I will love you from this moment on
Until my last breath is gone
But I wish I could write you a song
Oh, why can't I write you a song?
