Sittin' in my room just strummin' my guitar
Just tryna be a star, just tryin'
To listen to my mood and write a couple bars
'Bout the feelings in my heart, it's tirin'
I've been writin' all these sad songs lately
That's what writin' hella sad songs makes you do
But here's the truth
It's 'cause of you, ooh
That I don't wanna write a sad song
Takin' me back to our last talk
Making me feel like, after all this time I still need to
Ask if I can come out and meet you
But sad songs won't bring us together
Sad songs won't make me feel better
And I might write another hundred songs or two
But I don't wanna write another sad song about you
Starin' at my wall 'cause
I can't find the words to
Write another verse
Without my head takin' the fall right
Into all our memories
The messages you sent me years ago
It's gettin' colder and my heart's been hurtin'
And gettin' over it is hard for me to do
I hate the truth
But it's 'cause of you, ooh
That I keep writin' all these sad songs
Takin' me back to our last talk
Making me feel like, after all this time I still need to
Ask if I can come out and meet you
But sad songs won't bring us together
Sad songs won't make me feel better
And I might think about it when I'm feelin' blue
But I don't wanna write another sad song about...
But what am I supposed to do
If I can't stop writin' songs 'bout you?
And what am I supposed to think
If I think of you each time I sing?
I wish I could forget already
But if I did, I'd wanna let you know
I'm letting go
And I'm tellin' you goodbye
'Cause I don't ever wanna write a sad song
Takin' me back to our last talk
Making me feel like, after all this time I still need to
Ask if I can come out and meet you
But sad songs are all I've been singin'
Sad songs, they keep me dreamin'
And even if those dreams are never comin' true
I can't help but write another sad song about you
You
And you, yeah
And I can't help but write another sad song about you
