Write Me a Song

ABOUT THE SONG 
I wrote this song around 2005 or 2006 or so. At the time I had been dating a musician who wrote beautiful piano compositions, but he couldn’t bring himself to delve into the lyrical realm. This song was basically a plea for him to write me a song because I knew he had it in him. All he needed was a bit of encouragement. Soon after I wrote this, he wrote a string of awesome lyrical songs. I also want to mention that both of the verses has some extra lines that were ultimately shortened down to remain radio friendly aka under the 3.5 minute mark... It's still one of my longer songs. I feel like this was the point I started really coming into my own as a songwriter.

Verse 1:
Hey…
Write me a song
Show me your love
Is that asking for much?

Pre Chorus:
I know you got it in you
So stop it with your dumb excuse
I’m not looking for anything profound

Chorus:
So write,
Write me a song
Show me your love
That’s all I want
From you

Verse 2:
Lately…
I haven’t been myself
Like a book on a shelf
Are my words kept there confined

Pre Chorus:
I’ve seen you work your magic
I doubt the well is running dry
I’m not looking for anything profound

Chorus:
So write,
Write me a song
Show me your love
That’s all I want

Bridge:
So now you got a bit of my melody
Won’t you try alittle bit just for me?

Break:
Babe…
Write me a song
Show me your love
Is that asking for much?

Bridge:
(Guitar Solo)

Chorus:
So bring
Bring me the stars
Keep them safe
Call them ours
Whoa , whoa
Oooh…

(Fade Out)
