It started out with hopeful thoughts in an empty room
Couldn’t find the right way to say I love you
Flipped through the dictionary, but the words were too ordinary
You deserve so much better, but what can my pen do
You are the hardest part of writing a love song
Too hard to work it out when nothing’s quite spot on
How can anyone describe, the angel I see in your eyes
Even as I write this line, trying to capture you
At a dead end with a lazy cliche
Wrote a couple down but can’t call it a day, gotta
Try to think of something witty, nothing that’s been done already
Maybe I’m trying too hard, to say what I need to say
You are the hardest part of writing a love song
Too hard to work it out when nothing’s quite spot on
How can anyone describe, the angel I see in your eyes
Even as I write this line, trying to capture you
Perfect rhymes and imagery
Metaphors and similes
But what are they good for
They don’t live up to you
You are the hardest part of writing this love song
Too hard to work it out when nothing’s quite spot on
How can anyone describe, the angel I see in your eyes
Even as I write this line, trying to capture you
You are the hardest part of writing this love song
Too hard to work it out when nothing’s quite spot on
How can anyone describe, the angel I see in your eyes
Even as I write this line, trying to capture you
