Indescribable


You can write a good song

In a minute or two

I want to write a song

Dedicated to you

 

I do not understand

How you can write a song

You make it seem simple

But my ballad sounds wrong

 

I cannot find a beat

My rhythm is a mess

My lyrics make no sense

I am trying my best

 

I fail at songwriting

I finally know why

There's no words I can say

That can start to describe

 

The things that stole my heart

The joy you bring to me

The way you love music

The things you dream to be

 

I cannot write a song

Especially for you

The reason is clear now

No words can describe you
