Little Voice - 'Love Song' lyrics

This album has not had a UK release yet, but that is what the internet there for! I expect I could have downloaded it from any number of sites, legally or otherwise. I am however, and rather more pleasingly, listening to the US vinyl 12" as I write about it and furthermore the vinyl version comes with the facility to download the all tracks on mp3 too - legally and totally free! What is more you get the full LP artwork, including an inner sleeve which includes full lyrics to all the songs.


There are plenty of them too; she is a prolific lyricist.

LOVE SONG

Head under water
And they tell me to breath easy for a while.
The breathing gets harder even I know that.
You made room for me but it's too soon to see
If I'm happy in your hands
I'm unusually hard to hold on to.
Blank stares at blank pages
You mean well, but you make this hard on me
I'm not gonna write you a love song
'Cause you asked for it
'Cause you need one, you see
I'm not gonna write you a love song
'Cause you tell me it's
Make or breaking this
If you're on you way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
If all you have is leaving I need a better reason to write you a love song today
I learned the hard way
That they all say things you want to hear
And my heavy heart sinks deep down under you
And your twisted words, your help just hurts.
You are not what I thought you were
Hello to high and dry
Convinced me to please you
Made me think that I need this too
I'm trying to let you hear me as I am
I'm not gonna write you a love song
'Cause you asked for it
'Cause you need one, you see
'Cause you tell me it's
Make or breaking this
If you're on you way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
If all you have is leaving I'm gonna need a better reason to write you a love song today
Promise me that you'll leave the light on
To help me see with daylight, my guide, gone
'Cause I believe there's a way you can love me because I say
I won't write you a love song
'Cause you asked for it
'Cause you need one you see
I'm not gonna write you a love song
'Cause you tell me it's make or breaking this
Is that why you wanted a love song?
'Cause you asked for it
'Cause you need one you see
I'm not gonna write you a love song
'Cause you tell me it's make or breaking this.
If you're on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
If your heart is nowhere in it
I don't want it for a minute
Babe, I'll walk the seven seas when I believe that there's a reason to
Write you a love song.

If you want the lyrics to any of the other songs on the album then please ask and I'll try to add them as soon as I can.
