I want to write a song that makes people cry
And when you hear my song, it gives you wings to fly
It tells a tale of broken hearts, loneliness and shame
The sweetest memories of life, sunshine and the rain
I don't know where it came from, somewhere deep within my soul
And every time I sing it, black hearts turn to gold
I want to write a song, I've got to write that song
They won't forget when I'm gone
It sings you into trance, it rocks you into dance
I want to, I've got to write a song
Don't want to sing the blues, go walking in someone's shoes
I want the universe to know, the pain of letting go
I've been lost in space, I've been chasing a ghost
And the words I'm writing, they'll be playing coast to coast
I want to write a song, I've got to write that song
They won't forget when I'm gone
It sings you into trance, it rocks you into dance
I want to, I've got to write a song
I want to write a song, I've got to write that song
They won't forget when I'm gone
It sings you into trance, it rocks you into dance
I want to, I've got to, yeah
I want to write a song, I've got to write that song
They won't forget when I'm gone
It sings you into trance, it rocks you into dance
I want to, I've got to, write a song
