Love Song Lyrics - American Idol

Head under water and they tell me 

To breathe easy for awhile 

The breathing gets harder, even I know that 

Made room for me, it's too soon to see 

If I'm happy in your hands 

I'm unusually hard to hold on to 

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 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 breaking this 

If you're on your way 

I'm not gonna write you to stay 

All you have is leaving 

I'm gon' 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 

Convinced 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 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 breaking 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 you'll leave the light on 

To help me see 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 breaking 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 breaking 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'll walk the seven seas 

When I believe that there's a reason 

To write you a love song today, today
