I’D LIKE TO WRITE A SONG FOR YOU<\/span><\/b>
\n\u00a9Trev Teasdel Coventry Jan 76 \/ May 79<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nI’d like to write a song for you<\/span>
\nBut where do I start?<\/span>
\nWith all the love songs in the world<\/span>
\nHow could it stand apart?<\/span>
\nIs there an essence I could find<\/span>
\nOn which none have touched or dwelt?<\/span>
\nA single sentiment but often felt?<\/span>
\nDoes it really matter<\/span>
\nthat to the age old world<\/span>
\nMy words, my love arn’t new\/<\/span>
\nFor this is the first time<\/span>
\nI have ever said<\/span>
\nI really really really do love you.<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nChorus<\/span>
\nAnd I really really do love you<\/span><\/i>
\nThough to the world it’s nothing new.<\/span><\/i>
\nI really really do love you<\/span><\/i>
\nAnd to me it’s brand new.<\/span><\/i>
\nThere’s a million ways i could prove it’s true<\/span><\/i>
\nThat i really really really do love you.<\/span><\/i>
\n
<\/span>
\nCan something so intangible<\/span>
\nbe touched upon by words?<\/span>
\nCan a feeling so sublime<\/span>
\nbe captured in a tank of verse\/<\/span>
\nCan one paint one’s <\/span>ecstasy
\nin all it’s colours on the wall?<\/span>
\nWhen love is an object<\/span>
\nin free fall.<\/span>
\nCan a rave review of a ballet<\/span>
\nconvey more than a token of its splendour.<\/span>
\nNo, so let us throwaway these words<\/span>
\nand let love express itself in all its candour.<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nTo express a lively feeling<\/span>
\nin a string of words<\/span>
\nOne must built with words that come alive.<\/span>
\nOne must chisel with a patience<\/span>
\ntil the features transform the clay.<\/span>
\nOne must learn to balance words<\/span>
\nlike a waiter with a tray.<\/span>
\nOh my love, is this what you’d really have me do?<\/span>
\nI could think of a million better ways<\/span>
\nof showing how much I really really do love you.<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nOh must I really write a song<\/span>
\nIt would take me far too long<\/span>
\nMy feeling’s far too strong<\/span>
\nmy chisel’s bound to get it wrong<\/span>
\nThere’s nothing I could say.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
