Love Song

It's not hard to write a love song, but it's hard to make them cry.
It's not hard to play the guitar, but it's hard to make it sound alright.
It's not hard to sing a melody, but it's hard to tell the truth.
It's not hard to stand up on a stage, so that's all I ever do.
It's not hard to find a lover, but it's hard to find the love.
It's not hard to get her number, but it's hard to get in touch.
It's not hard to say the 'l' word, but it's hard to tell the truth.
It's not hard do this over and over again, so that's all I ever do.
It's not hard to live in dreams, but it's hard to chase one down.
It's not hard to do something later, but it's hard to do something now.
It's not hard to take and to take and to take, but it's hard to give.
It's not hard to die, but it's hard to live.

An Insect Like Me

Oh, my girl, don't say nothing to me about love.
I'm still caught in this butterfly net of yours.
One day soon you will pick me out
and you'll pin me down on the page,
and that is the thought that keeps me beating my wings.
Oh, my my – what's this beautiful thing I see?
A face like sunshine, lights a fire inside of me.
One day soon I will find myself a soul who's gonna love me for me,
and that is the thought that keeps me beating my wings.
No butterfly net can hold an insect like me.
And one day soon, I'm sure,
nature's overture is going to teach me to sing.
And that is the thought that keeps me beating my wings.
No butterfly net can hold an insect like me.
