(for you girl)
[Verse 1]
They say you never write a love song unless it's a lie
Because one day you might look back and decide
All of those feelings that you're feeling inside
Maybe they died and you're stuck
Listening to this dumb love song
But let me document this moment in time
I know that sometimes you feel like all of life is a lie
Though you try not to fall for all these guys and their lines
Well these ladies do
They make you crazy with their mind games
Nawmsayin
But since I found you and been around you
I heard the sounds too
Red robins and hummingbirds
When the summer turned to winter
And the spring will thaw every snowy morning
That we shivered everything it falls
Sing this song
And every word I speak
Every letter I write that gets transmitted
Every megabyte every show on a tour
Every listless night I'm fidgeting
Sign every message like a little kid yes I did
[Chorus]
And I type it out less than three
Cause two is the number for you and me
You're the only one baby that I need to see
Cause without you I'm nothin'
Yes we got somethin'
A crazy little thing
Less than three call it whatever, yeah
Cause it's followed by forever
And I feel it in my soul
When I hit the shift key
1-2-3 L-O-V-E
[Verse 2]
Now every love song makes sense past tense
I felt the pretense that made me pretend
That I was happy maybe more just content
And these women in the past they could never represent
All the hope that I got in this small heart
That grew three sizes as the Grinch
Did my best to steal a kiss
Cause the puppy love was never really quite like this
And they say you can't teach an old dog new tricks
And I'm older every passing day
All the times I ran away to my desert island
Where me and Wilson were cast aways
Said things I had to say, did things I had to do
Led me through the alleyways
Always coming back to you
Through every tour
Every song that I perform
Every letter that I write
Every studio that I record
And I really hope that you and I could stay together
Or I'll be stuck with this dumb song forever
[Chorus]
And I type it out less than three
Cause two is the number for you and me
You're the only one baby that I need to see
Cause without you I'm nothin'
Yes we got somethin'
A crazy little thing
Less than three call it whatever, yeah
Cause it's followed by forever
And I feel it in my soul
When I hit the shift key
1-2-3 L-O-V-E
[Verse 3]
Yo Wednesday afternoon had a drink witchu
After you asked me to hang out
Got me wondering what you're thinking too
Showed me bruises and I showed you some scars
And then you carved another one
Right through a piece of my heart
And later on they we kept on talking over the loud rabble
They're singing "Why Bother" they're singing "Pink Triangle"
And when you left I felt a little down but better knowing
I had a new friend around this dumpy town
Til your song, it plays almost every day it seems
When I wake up from those drowsy dreams
And when I take a break to listen to the sounds of everything
And sometimes I hear you on the radio it seems, yeah
I've never been in love
And so whatever cause the songs that we play
Talk a big game or better some
I see you swooping in now we in a predicament
Worse than Simian's[?] dilemma ever was
And they say all the songs been written
Mostly the good ones by Alex Chiltin
But now I'm in love with a girl
Love to see her headphones on
Every time she listens
Yeah
Straight from the heart baby
It's Adam WarRock
Yeah
