lyrics

I tried to write a love song
I tried to write a poem

I tried to talk about love
I had it all wrong

I wish I had the good life
cut without mistakes

Somehow I always foul everything
all up
okay?

These ladies don't chase me
They look then look away
But once I start talking
they breath I took away

See I'm no eye candy
the cover of my book
is old and kind of raggedy
kind of that's my look

Because I tried to fall in love once
I tried to drop my guard
put my heart down on the door stop
and listened to my heart

But my innocence was taken for a roller coaster ride
everytime my heart was broken
I died deep inside

You see I tried to keep composure
act Like I'm a rock
nothing gets me down
I never go in shock

I couldn't write a love song
I couldn't write a Limerick
I couldn't read the vibes
they were giving me to hit it

Body language Mute
Blind dumb and deaf
I would talk a lot of game
girls would put me to the test

I was just a teenager
young without a care
wanted a girlfriend
was beyond unprepared


Chorus:
I tried to make a love song
but I couldn't find the groove
I tried to keep my head up
cuz I knew what I had to do.

Ya see, love is a trip
sometimes a trap
some people disappear and they never come back
So I couldn't write a love song
Nah, I just can't do that.

Every time My eyes open
a fog seems to set in
I thought that she liked me
we had no connection

I swear she gave the eyes
I know how to read the hints
she's one of a kind
just like your fingerprints

I asked if she'd like to go out
get a bite or get a drink
I asked her for her number
she didn't even blink

When you get a blank stare
she don't care I get it now
girl don't sugar coat
you don't have to let me down

I'm cool with straight and dry
keep it simple say the facts
rejection is the motto
always happens it's the past

I tried to write a love song
I tried to get a grasp

stuck my hands in the hornets nest
while dealing with some wasps

I tried to switch my game up
start again from scratch

stop being caught up
and learn to be a catch

gotta a little better at
sticking to my ways,
learned to love myself and not give in to these dames
took all the pictures I collected burn em up
still a soul lost looking for eternal love

Chorus:
I tried to make a love song
but I couldn't find the groove
I tried to keep my head up
cuz I knew what I had to do.

Ya see, love is a trip
sometimes a trap
some people disappear and they never come back
So I couldn't write a love song
Nah, I just can't do that.



just a stupid dude
try to have my cake and eat it
inconsiderate of they feelings
so they never let me beat it

had a lot of sleepless nights
second guessing all my moves
thinkin bout how much I lost
when I had nothing to lose

I tried to write a love song
I tried to pen a phrase
Thought I'd been in love
when it was more like a daze
kinda heart broken
lost within the maze
walked around aimless
trying to ease the pain

I tried to write a love song
I tried to write a poem
I tried to talk about love
I had it all wrong
feel it in your chest until you
hear what can be heard
got it to a crisp
because the truth is love burns
