Question:
I can't write another ****ing love song,
This pen has already used up all the lines,
I can't fill another ****ing notebook
With cheap cliches and throwaway rhymes...
But I can sing these songs,
And I can write these words,
In a way they'll never be found,
In a way they'll never be heard...
In the back of my mind there is a tune that turns
Every thought of you into another love song,
On the tip of my tongue there is a word that waits
And lingers as long as I live and I learn...
What it's like to love a woman
Deeper than you would love yourself,
What it's like to hold a woman
Stronger than you'd want to be held.
I won't tell you what you mean to me,
Words are worse than the silence they break,
I won't bother you with odes or vows,
Songs are shorter than the time they take...
But I will hide these hymns,
And I will seal these songs,
In a place they'll never be found,
In a place they'll never be heard...
In the depths of hell there is a place reserved
For everyone who ever sung of what they never knew,
In the depths of me I thought that I deserved
Nothing but the old, and the borrowed, and the blue...
I thought I'd never love a woman
Deeper than I could love myself,
I thought I'd never hold a woman
Stronger than I'd want to be held.

There are ideas... but, as usual, I really have no good way to record them right now.
Thanks for the kind words, both of you.
