Write Me A Song
Edwin McCain

Kelly is raising her son
His dad left just after the birth
And now she's living on child support checks
I guess that's all that man was worth
She said I just need a man who will love me
But they all just want one night of sin
I know our life could be better
I just don't know where I should begin

Chorus:
She said write me a song
One that makes all the girls cry
And the old women swoon
With the sound of my tune
And the hearts of the lonely will fly
Yeah, they'll fly

Beth she sings straight from her heart
She's hidden her tracks very well
But these days she's fallin' apart
And it makes me feel just like hell

She says, boy, you can't imagine my life
The death and the drugs and the pain
And though I keep running
I just can't seem to break from these chains

She said write me a song
Fill it all up with words
Like brilliant and heavenly
Make it sound just like me
Just like the first time I love you was heard

And now write me a song
One that makes all the girls cry
And the old women swoon
At the sound of my tune
And the hearts of the lonely will fly

We're all feeding our lonely
Like it might go away
The doors of heaven swing wide
If we just find the right words to say

She said write me a song
Fill it all up with words
Like brilliant and heavenly
Make it sound just like me
Just like the first time I love you was heard

And now write me a song
One that makes all the girls cry
And the old women swoon
At the sound of my tune
And the hearts of the lonely will fly

Yeah, fly
She said write me a song
(She said write me a song)
She said write me a song
(She said write me a song)
Fade
