Not a Love Song, October 2005

Self-explanatory.

Turn on the radio and what do you hear
It’s all about that crazy little thing called love
But think of all the girls whose hearts have been broken
And all because of those three words spoken
And that’s why I wrote this song

This isn’t a love song, it’s a song about facing the world all alone
This isn’t a love song, it’s a song about being on your own
This isn’t a love song, it’s a song about learning to be strong
And finding the answers in you

Wake up to find you’re one your own
You left him, or maybe he left you (in any case)
No one to hold you when you cry
Or touch your shoulder when you sigh
You’re treading water by yourself in a dangerous sea

CHORUS

This song’s for all the tears that have been shed
This song’s for all the broken hearts that have bled
This song’s for all the times you wish you could forget
But you can’t forget

This isn’t a love song

This isn’t a love song, it’s a song about facing the world all alone
This isn’t a love song, it’s a song about being on your own
This isn’t a love song, it’s a song about today
This isn’t a love song, it’s a song about faith
This isn’t a love song, it’s a song about strength
And finding the answers…
