lyrics

If I sang about sleeping, would you rest your eyes with me
If I sang about dreaming, would you tell me what you see
If I sang about loving, would you give me something sweet
And let me try to sweep you off your feet

If I sang about leaving, would you put on your traveling shoes
If I sang about dancing, would you show me your go to moves
If I sang about flying, would you spread your arms out wide
When we jump, at least we can say we tried

But I don’t sing this song for you, I don’t sing this song for you
If I repeat myself enough, then my mind might think it’s true
I don’t sing this song for you, those days are gone, those days are through
And writing songs is all I know to do

If I sang about painting, would you let me be inspired
If I sang about reading, would you pull a chair by the fire
If I sang about growing, would you plant the seed down deep
The wind will blow but the roots will keep

But I don’t sing this song for you, I don’t sing this song for you
If I repeat myself enough, then my mind might think it’s true
I don’t sing this song for you, those days are gone, those days are through
And writing songs is all I know to do

If I sang about hanging, would you go and cut that rope
If I sang about drowning, would you give me a thing to float
If I sang about dying, would you share a little faith
Use the stories in your book to fill my grave

But I don’t sing this song for you, I don’t sing this song for you
If I repeat myself enough, then my mind might think it’s true
I don’t sing this song for you, those days are gone, those days are through
And writing songs is all I know to do
I always pick the page between the two
