Well I wish love was a simple song to write
Cause I’d have pages worth of words that were not lies
Your name would be the melody that’s on my tongue
Oh if love was a simple song
There are not words
That have been written or been sung
That my ears have heard or I’ve cheapened with my tongue
That hold the weight of this thing that we call love
Oh love’s not a simple song
But my song’s for you
Though not pretty or poetic I hope you know it’s true
I’m not perfect in my ways and I let you down most days
But know it’s true that darling I love you
And I’ve got a rhythm and melody I like
But without you by my side there’s no harmony or rhymes
Just a freight train rolling down the tracks of a lonely night
Oh love you are worth the fight
But my song’s for you
Though not pretty or poetic I hope you know it’s true
I’m not perfect in my ways and I let you down most days
But know it’s true that darling I love you
Yeah my song’s for you
Although sometimes it's pathetic I hope you know it’s true
I’m not perfect in my ways and I mess most of my days
But know it’s true that darling I love you
That I love you
Yes I do
