"A Love Song" lyrics

I see you waiting on the front porch, looking like a dream
You like my Mineral bumper sticker and laugh at the way I sing
Wish I could find a way to make you feel safe, could this be the way?

It's summer in San Diego, a week past the 4th of July
We're still blasting off bottle rockets and making up for lost time
Wish I could find a way to make you feel safe, could this be the way?

Kisses on your forehead
You said you waited so long
With your head on my shoulder
I just wrote you a love song
I just wrote you a love song

It's still hot in this beat-up Camry, even with the windows down
Sit here sweating, feeling sorry for myself, gonna do all the things you ask
Wish I could find a way to make you feel safe, could this be the way?

Kisses on your forehead
You said you waited so long
With your head on my shoulder
I just wrote you a love song
I draw circles on your skin
You knew that I'd be the one
With your head on my shoulder
I just wrote you a love song

I am a work of art

I'm not trying to be dramatic
I'm not trying to sound pathetic
I just want these words in my head
To come out somewhat poetic

Hope that I found a way to make you feel safe, could this be the way?
Could this be the way?

Kisses on your forehead
You said you waited so long
With your head on my shoulder
I just wrote you a love song
I draw circles on your skin
You knew that I'd be the one
With your head on my shoulder
I just wrote you a love song

I just wrote you a love song
