It takes time to sound natural
I have worn out the clichés I know
But I got no plans for the rest of the afternoon
So I'll sit here and play till the right things come out for you
I write songs to make sense of it all
You are hearing my brain as it turns
And when I am done with the mess I am giving you
I hope you'll have something that you'll want to listen to
There's no shortcuts, there's no easy way
I'm still not sure what I'm trying to say
These won't be the right words but these words are for you
I hope you understand I'm doing the best I can
I can't sing the best notes these notes are for you
I know you thought I was done but I'll give you one more song
I first sung this a year ago
I have rewritten every line
I want to reflect but without being cynical
So I cannot miss even one single syllable
And I might not play this to anyone else
It might never be heard by a crowd
And this might be it, my final performance
So I'd better make sure I nail the next chorus and
These won't be the right words but these words are for you
I hope you understand I'm doing the best I can
I can't sing the best notes these notes are for you
I know you thought I was done but I'll give you one more song
