lyrics

Another lovesong

White paper right in front of me.
White and empty.
Words don’t come so easily when life is kind on you.
So I guess, I could sing, about the way that human kind is coming to its end.
But all this has been done before
So I wonder
Should I sing about the physics of the universe?
Climate change?
Raging wars?
I’m not too sure about the kind of things that I should tell.
But I’m quite sure that I won’t sing another love song.
Just to tell how beautiful she is.
The way she looks and tells me I’m a fool.
The things I couldn’t miss.
Today, tonight, forever
Sometimes heaven looks so far away,
but I am pretty sure that it is really close.

Yeah, lovesongs can be quite a bore
Blue and cheesy
Darling, sugar, honeypie
I love you very much
I can’t live with or without you
You’re my flower, you’re the sunshine in my pointless life.
But sometimes, if you sing these lines
And you mean them
They can mean a whole lot more than words will ever tell
So I guess, it’s ok, as long as not another jerk has written them for you…
And so I think that I might sing another lovesong.
Just to tell how beautiful she is.
The way she looks and tells me I’m a fool.
The things I couldn’t miss.
Today, tonight, forever
Sometimes heaven looks so far away,
but I am pretty sure that it is really close.
