"I Wrote This Song For You" lyrics

"I Wrote This Song For You"

I wrote this song for you
I poured out my soul
I hope you hear it on some lonely
Late-night radio
I hope it makes you smile
When I'm not there to hold on to
That's the reason why
I wrote this song for you

I worked out the melody
On my old guitar
Then I finally found the words
At the bottom of my heart
I know that that's not much
But you know it's what I do
The music speaks for me
So I wrote this song for you

You never asked me once
To give up on my dream
I know it's a sacrifice to love
Someone like me
I really don't know how
You do it but you do
That's why I sat down
And I wrote this song for you

I worked out this melody
On my old guitar
Then I finally found the words
At the bottom of my heart
I know that that's not much
But you know it's what I do
The music speaks for me
So I wrote this song for you

The music speaks for me
So I wrote this song for you
