For You - Live

You say you could never write a tune
As pretty as I do
But I love it when you sing to me

Out of the billion other places and faces
We are yet to meet
It's only you where my heart fits in perfectly
Hmmm

I like the sound of pouring rain
My cup of tea that keeps me sane
But I love rain when I'm nestled in your arms

And someday we'll buy a bed for two
Kiss you softly every morning, too
Oh, what I'd give to wake up next to you
Hmmm

There's so much of you I'll never know
So many treasures I cannot give
Lay down with me, recount our memories
Does that make up for what we've missed?

And I'm terrible at understanding
Time and time again
But if time was meant to heal us
We're filled with vows we're yet to send

Well, I like writing melodies
And humming out a tune
But I love it when I'm writing them for you

With these words left unsaid
We'll write novels in our heads
And spill them out once they finally understand

That life is gray and black and blue
But Darling, that's not always true
It's never blue when my clothes smell of you

Shivers down my spine
When eyes lock, hands intertwine
Our hearts beat the same old lullaby
We're worn out yet so alive

We're just a bunch of broken souls
We're not quite sure just where to go
But this time I would know
'Cause it's your heart that I call home

Well, I like writing melodies
And humming out a tune
But I love it when I'm writing them for you

Hmmm
Hmmm

In four more years you'll leave this town
Make new friends and we'll fall down
But that doesn't mean that I won't stick around

And when we finally say goodbye
Tears will shed, hearts will die
But our love is here to stay
And so am I

I know that I'm not perfect
Even though you disagree
And I know there's nothing harder than
Loving someone like me

But if you still think it's crazy
How you're loved by lil' old me
I'll send all our plans in bottles
If it meant you were the sea
Hmmm

And I can't do as much as you
Can't write, can't make good art for you
So, for now I hope this'll do
To make you feel my love for you

We're so six months down an endless road
We've got the rest of our lives to go
'Till then I'll be waiting through this storm
As we promise to laugh and sing and keep each other warm

Well I like writing melodies
And humming out a tune
But I love it when I'm writing them for you
Darling, I hope my melody reaches you
