Edwin McCain - Write Me A Song Lyrics
Kelly is raising a sonHis dad left just after the birthNow she's living on child support checksI guess that's all that man was worthShe says, "I just need a man who will love me"But they all just want one night of sin"I know my life could be better"I just don't know where I should begin."She said write me a songOne that makes all the girls cryAnd the old women swoon at the sound of my tuneAnd the hearts of the lonely will flyYeah, they'll fly...Beth, she sings straight from her heartShe's hidden her tracks very wellBut these days she's falling apartAnd it makes me feel just like hellShe said, "Boy, you can't imagine my life"The death and the drugs and the pain"And though I keep running"I can't seem to break from these chains."She said write me a songAnd fill it all up with the wordsLike "brilliant" and "heavenly"Make it sound just like meJust like the first time "I love you" was heardAnd now write me a songOne that makes all the girls cryAnd the old women swoon at the sound of my tuneAnd the hearts of the lonely will flyWe're all feeding our lonelyLike it might go awayThe doors of heaven swing wideIf we just find the right words to sayShe said write me a songAnd fill it all up with the wordsLike "brilliant" and "heavenly"Make it sound just like meJust like the first time "I love you" was heardAnd now write me a songOne that makes all the girls cryAnd the old women swoon at the sound of my tuneAnd the hearts of the lonely will flyYeah, they'll fly...She said write me a song(Write me a song)She said write me a song(Write me a song)She said write me a song(Write me a song)She said write me a song(Write me a song
