Nothing That Would Make You Cry


I have decided to write a new song
To talk about the right and maybe the wrong
I had no words by the end of the day
So I decided to write this anyway

I hope you don't mind my lack of style
I tend to do that once in a while
Do you promise me you will sing along
If I ever get to write a new song?

You took me up high right before I fell
I know what to do to make you feel well
So I don't know if we will last that long
Unless I decide to write this new song

One hundred words can't stop me from dreaming
One thousand days will get me believing
But ten minutes will be enough for me
To write about what I want us to be

Now I admit I told you a small lie
Oh, this is nothing that would make you cry
You read my words and find them trustworthy
My ten minutes were actually twenty
