"The Songwriter" lyrics

I've had the chance to play my music
I've got to sing my songs
Everything was goin' right
Not a single thing went wrong
Oh, but when the show was over
I thought I made the grade
I tried so hard to impress you, girl
With my style, my moves, my ways

(You made it) So it may seem
But did I really make it inside your heart, lady, lady
(You made it) Still it's not over
Another song has now begun
You are the song and

I am the songwriter
Waiting for a song
To light upon my knee
So I can bring it to you
I am a songwriter
Never knowing if a song of mine
Can make you feel all the love I'm feeling for you
So I'll sing it for you
Hey, yeah

Girl, how can I do it?
How can I make you mine?
I don't care how long it takes
Cause all I have is time
I guess it doesn't matter
The success with my songs
Though the world's in love with me
Still I'm all alone

(You made it) So it may seem
But did I really make it inside your heart, baby
(You made it) Still it's not over
Another song has now begun
You are my song and

I am the songwriter
Waiting for a song
To light upon my knee
So I can sing it to you, baby
I am a songwriter
Never knowing if a song of mine
Can make you feel all the love I'm feeling for you
So I'll sing it for you

I'll sing you a melody
I've gotta write a song
That makes you feel so good inside
Girl and a song that brings
To the love you hide
A song for you that says my love is so free
Hey, so let the music play, let it play

I am the songwriter
Waiting for a song
To light upon my knee
So I can bring it to you, baby
I am a songwriter
Never knowing if a song of mine
Can make you feel all the love I'm feeling for you
So I'll sing it for you
I'll sing it for you
Ooh, baby
Ooh, baby
Ooh, baby...
