Song by Sara Bareilles<br /><br>
Head under water<br>
And they tell me to breathe easy for a while<br>
The breathing gets harder, even I know that<br>
You made room for me but it's too soon to see<br>
If I'm happy in your hands<br>
<br>
I'm unusually hard to hold on to<br>
Blank stares at blank pages<br>
No easy way to say this<br>
You mean well, but you make this hard on me<br>
I'm not gonna write you a love song<br>
'cause you asked for it<br>
'cause you need one, you see<br>
<br>
I'm not gonna write you a love song<br>
'cause you tell me it's<br>
Make or break in this<br>
If you're on your way<br>
I'm not gonna write you to stay<br>
If all you have is leaving I'm gonna need a better<br>
Reason to write you a love song today<br>
<br>
I learned the hard way<br>
That they all say things you want to hear<br>
And my heavy heart sinks deep down under you and<br>
Your twisted words,<br>
Your help just hurts<br>
You are not what I thought you were<br>
Hello to high and dry<br>
Convinced me to please you<br>
Made me think that I need this too<br>
I'm trying to let you hear me as I am<br>
<br>
I'm not gonna write you a love song<br>
'cause you asked for it<br>
'cause you need one, you see<br>
I'm not gonna write you a love song<br>
'cause you tell me it's<br>
Make or break in this<br>
If you're on your way<br>
I'm not gonna write you to stay<br>
If all you have is leaving I'm gonna need a better<br>
Reason to write you a love song today<br>
<br>
Promise me that you'll leave the light on<br>
To help me see with daylight, my guide, gone<br>
'cause I believe there's a way you can love me<br>
Because I say<br>
I won't write you a love song<br>
'cause you asked for it<br>
'cause you need one, you see<br>
<br>
I'm not gonna write you a love song<br>
'cause you tell me it's make or break in this<br>
Is that why you wanted a love song<br>
'cause you asked for it<br>
'cause you need one, you see<br>
I'm not gonna write you a love song<br>
'cause you tell me it's make or break in this<br>
If you're on your way<br>
I'm not gonna write you to stay<br>
If your heart is nowhere in it<br>
I don't want it for a minute<br>
Babe, I'll walk the seven seas when I believe that<br>
There's a reason to<br>
Write you a love song today<br>
 <br>
