[00:08.820]Head under water
[00:09.990]And they tell me to breathe easy for a while

[00:39.380]Blank stares at blank pages
[00:43.740]No easy way to say this
[00:47.590]You mean well, but you make this hard on me
[00:53.640]I'm not gonna write you a love song
[00:55.650]'cause you asked for it
[00:58.160]'cause you need one, you see

[01:07.530]If you're on your way
[01:10.230]I'm not gonna write you to stay
[01:14.420]If all you have is leaving I'm gonna need a better
[01:17.610]Reason to write you a love song today
[01:31.20]I learned the hard way

[01:38.440]And my heavy heart sinks deep down under you and
[01:46.390]Your twisted words,
[01:48.590]Your help just hurts
[01:50.510]You are not what I thought you were
[01:53.230]Hello to high and dry
[02:02.30]Convinced me to please you
[02:05.720]Made me think that I need this too
[02:09.760]I'm trying to let you hear me as I am

[02:23.220]I'm not gonna write you a love song
[02:25.260]'cause you tell me it's
[02:27.850]Make or breaking this
[02:30.320]If you're on your way
[02:32.160]I'm not gonna write you to stay
[02:36.410]If all you have is leaving I'm gonna need a better
[02:39.100]Reason to write you a love song today
[02:45.880]Promise me that you'll leave the light on
[02:49.620]To help me see with daylight, my guide, gone
[02:53.550]'cause I believe there's a way you can love me

[03:00.490]I won't write you a love song
[03:02.590]'cause you asked for it
[03:04.90]'cause you need one, you see
[03:05.660]I'm not gonna write you a love song
[03:08.940]'cause you tell me it's make or breaking this
[03:12.50]Is that why you wanted a love song
[03:17.280]'cause you asked for it
[03:19.890]'cause you need one, you see
[03:22.90]I'm not gonna write you a love song
[03:24.210]'cause you tell me it's make or breaking this
[03:28.420]If you're on your way
[03:30.180]I'm not gonna write you to stay
[03:33.60]If your heart is nowhere in it
[03:39.750]I don't want it for a minute
[03:43.820]Babe, I'll walk the seven seas when I believe that
[03:46.580]There's a reason to
[03:46.720]Write you a love song today
