When these hands won't strum and I can't find the chords
And my voice don't wanna sing
When my feet say, "Dance, " but I can't find the floor
Will you just lie here with me?

Will your eyes catch mine, then linger too long?
Will you still let me bring you your tea?
When your mind starts to wander, can I come along?
Is there someplace that you'd rather be?

I wrote you a song, almost afraid to sing it
How could it ever be beautiful enough?
I can't give you the ocean or the sky so blue
The wonders of the world, they don't compare to you
I did the only thing I know how to do

I wrote you a song
I wrote you a song

If I brought you flowers, in a couple of days
The petals would all fall away
To give you forever, for worse or for better
Something that won't ever fade

I wrote you a song, now that it's done
It's simple what I wanna say
This scribbled love letter, we wrote it together
I promise my heart's on the page

I wrote you a song, almost afraid to sing it
How could it ever be beautiful enough?
I can't give you the ocean or the sky so blue
The wonders of the world, they don't compare to you
I did the only thing I know how to do

I wrote you a song
I wrote you a song

I wrote you a song, now that it's done
It's simple what I wanna say

I wrote you a song, almost afraid to sing it
How could it ever be beautiful enough?
I can't give you the ocean or the sky so blue
The wonders of the world, they don't compare to you
I did the only thing I know how to do

I wrote you a song
I wrote you a song
I wrote you a song
