Just a middle-aged guy who's been carrying song ideas around in his head for years and has decided to learn the craft and hopefully produce something decent eventually
This Ain't A Love Song
(c) Greg Swartzentruber/Dorothy Potter/Robert Sands
I've been tryin' to write a love song for you
But it's no use, it's something I can't do
Cause everything I wanna write's been said before
But I wanna tell you somehow
That I love you more and more
But...
This ain't a love song
I wouldn't know where to start
Writing a love song
Even if I sing it soft
It still ain't a love song
I can't find the words to say
How I feel but I want to show you everyday
But this ain't a love song
I bet those love songs that you hear on the radio
Make you sigh, they're full of words I don't know
But fancy words fall short of what I feel today
And when I look at you my darling
You simply take my breath away
But...
This ain't a love song
I wouldn't know where to start
Writing a love song
Even if I sing it soft
It still ain't a love song
I can't find the words to say
That I'm grateful every time you call my name
Bridge~
Cuz this ain't some love song
Like you hear most everyday
To me they just feel wrong
Can't bring myself to sing 'em
Gonna show you all my love some other way
So I hope that it's enough for me to say
that you're the one I think about you night and day
And when I hold you in our quiet bed at night
Well I think that writing love songs
Is just a big old waste of time
But...
This ain't a love song
I wouldn't know where to start
Writing a love song
Even if I sing it soft
It still ain't a love song
But don't get me wrong
There's nothing else I'd rather do today
Than tell you that forever I will stay with the one that I adore
There's nothin more to say
So this ain't a love song
No, this ain't a love song
