Don't Write a Song About Me

Things change, they always change, but we remain the same
You let me dance on your feet back in the day
I remember how you ran away from the lens that tried to catch your gaze
But when I ask you 'bout us, think you might say:

"Call me up to fly away,
give you all I have and more.
I will hold your hand and raise my glass,
and I'll drink you to the floor!

But I draw the line if I see you smilin' with that look that's in your eye
I know you'll try,
But please, if you don't mind-

Don't write a song about me,
just don't write a song about me,
No, please - don't write a song about me."

We spent long days apart,
But never said Goodbye.
We made a gamble when we had no need to try

Every time I see you I get butterflies,
We laugh until we cry.
But it's the story of us, yeah, You and I,
But you still say:

"Call me up to fly away,
give you all I am and more.
I will hold your hand and raise this glass,
and I'll drink you to the floor!

But I draw the line if I see you smilin' with that look that's in your eye
I know you'll try,
But please, if you don't mind-

Don't write a song about me,
just don't write a song about me,
No, please - don't write a song about me.

I didn't ask you to,
I didn't want you to,
In fact, I said not to.

Don't write a song about me,
No, not even if you change key,
Don't write a song about me,
I said don't!

Just call me up to fly away,
give you all I have and more.
I will hold your hand and raise my glass,
and I'll drink you to the floor!

But I draw the line if I see you smilin' with that look that's in your eye
I know you'll try,
But please, if you don't mind-

Don't write a song about me,
Don't write a song about me,
No, damn, don't write a song about me,
Just please, don't write a song about me."

I'm not listening.
