I been writing songs from ever since I learnt to write

I hope to make it big someday

And I been working so hard

All my words comfort me and make me feel alright

They get me through the day

And I been feeling so sad

 

I have written ‘bout everything that comes to mind

Songs of peace

Songs of hope

Songs of God

Songs of joy

Songs of rage

Songs of fear

Songs of fact

Songs of fiction

Songs of love and songs of goals

Then they’re songs about songs you know

Songs of music

Songs of countries

Songs of people

Songs of cultures

And many I said many

So many songs about girls

I got so many songs about girls

 

And I only keep hoping that

One of my songs

Could touch one of these girls’ heart

She’d sing along

 

One of these songs ‘bout one of these girls

Will be the one to make me a whole

 

Cause part of my life been wasted writing songs to fall in love

And all this time I been waiting, holding on to fall in love

So one of these girls I been waiting for

Will sing to me I love you more than I ever loved before

 

(music)

 

Songs of situations

Songs of rejection

Songs of longing

Songs of wanting

Songs for others’

Songs for myself

Songs that condemn

Songs that help

And many there’s so many

Too many songs about girls

I wrote so many songs about girls

And I keep believing that I’ll hit the perfect rhyme

That touch one of these girls’ heart and will make her mine

 

One of these songs ‘bout one of these girls

Will be the one to make me a whole

 

Cause part of my life been wasted writing songs to fall in love

And all this time I been waiting, holding on to fall in love

So one of these girls I been waiting for

Will sing to me I love you more than I ever loved before
