I Wish I Could Write You a Song - John Paul White

I wish, I wish I could write you a song

I have been trying so long

Every rhyme feels wrong

I wish, I wish I could come up with words

Words that the world’s never heard

But I can’t even finish a verse

A melody

With harmony

Soft and sweet

Sounds like what it feels like when you dance with me

It sways and bends

Like violins

And it never ends

I wish, I wish you could climb in my heart

Down where the real feelings are

You’d hear a real work of art

So please, come over here next to me

Lie in my arms silently

I’ll show the things I can’t sing

A melody

With harmony

Soft and sweet

Sounds like what it feels like when you dance with me

It sways and bends

Like violins

And it never ends, never ends

I will love you from this moment on

Until my last breath is gone

But I wish I could write you a song

Oh, why can’t I write you a song?
