I Want a Love Song But All You Give Me Is The Blues
I have something like an exhale on a cold day
Fleeting in the moment but you knew it was warm
I want something longer, I want something that lasts
I look down to see the lines in the palm of my hands.
Spoken words say I love you, but your written words hurt
Long songs with a chorus uncompleted, like wisps on water that bleed away
Push me and pull me, like a kite in the wind
Love letters I've written and with my eyes, try to send.
Do this: I do it
Say this: it is said
"Validate the dreams that manifest in my head"
I kiss the soles of your feet and the bruises on your skin
But it's not good enough for you, such is the curse of all men.
I want a love song, with words tender and true
But all you give me is the wails of a guitar, and the blues...
