In the corner of a bar
Singing 'bout a broken heart
For hours and hours
By closing time I face the fact
That if I had a gift like that
I know that I could win her back
But there's some things I can't do
So now it's up to you.
Write one for me
Put the perfect words together
Write one for me
A melody to last forever
I don't have the song, so if you please,
Tell her she's the right one for me.
It does no good for you to play
A pretty song like Yesterday
'cause that's not what I need to say
To get her to love me
I'm too scared to tell her so
So if you'd be my Cyrano
And send to her a tune I know
That she would change her mind
So take a little time and...
Write one for me
Put the perfect words together
Write one for me
A melody to last forever
I don't have the song, so if you please,
Tell her she's The right one for me.
If I could have a poem, I would send one
But I don't have a pen I can depend on
I can't come up with a single line
So would you write the song
And tell her that it's my mine, all mine.
Write one for me
Put the perfect words together
Write one for me
A melody to last forever
I don't have the song, so if you please,
Tell her she's The right one for me.
Tell her she's The right one for me.
A young man strumming his guitar In the corner of a bar Singing 'bout a broken heart For hours and hours By closing time I face the fact That if I had a gift like that I know that I could win her back But there's some things I can't do So now it's up to you. Write one for me Put the perfect words together Write one for me A melody to last forever I don't have the song, so if you please, Tell her she's the right one for me. It does no good for you to play A pretty song like Yesterday 'cause that's not what I need to say To get her to love me I'm too scared to tell her so So if you'd be my Cyrano And send to her a tune I know That she would change her mind So take a little time and...
