Love Song - SARA BAREILLES

Head underwater
And you tell me to breathe easy for awhile
The breathing gets harder
Even I know that
You made room for me, it's too soon to see
If I'm happy in your hands
I'm unusually hard to hold onto

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 breakin' this if you're on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
If all you have is leaving I'ma need a better reason to write you a love song today
today

I learned the hard way
That they all say things you wanna hear
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

Convince 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 breakin this if you're on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
If all you have is leaving I'ma 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 ask 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 breakin 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 breakin 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 would walk the seven seas when I believe that there's a reason to write you a love song today
Today
