lyrics
I’ll Write A Song About You
by Dave Undis and Fred Butch Burns
CHORUS
I'll write a song about you when you're gone.
I'll do it the very first day after you've moved on.
Whenever a love is over that's what I do.
But I hope I never have to write a song about you.
VERSE
Will it be a song about the sorrow and the pain?
About having to fall in love all over again?
About how I was so sure you were the one?
I'll write a song about you when we're done.
CHORUS
I'll write a song about you when you're gone.
I'll do it the very first day after you've moved on.
Whenever a love is over that's what I do.
But I hope I never have to write a song about you.
INSTRUMENTAL BREAK
CHORUS
I'll write a song about you when we're through.
Most likely from a sad and lonely point of view.
Whenever a love is over that's what I do.
I hope I never have to write a song about you.
VERSE
Will it be a song about cursing the stars above?
About just how much I miss being in love?
About how much you loved me and I loved you?
I'll write a song about you when we're through.
CHORUS
I'll write a song about you when you're gone.
I'll do it the very first day after you've moved on.
Whenever a love is over that's what I do.
But I hope I never have to write a song about you.
Whenever a love is over that's what I do.
But I hope I never have to write a song about you.
