Love song for no one

quiet demo

Lyrics

say the word
and i'd come flying just as fast as light
say it hurts
i'll take all your wrongs and make them all right
if you demurred
you'd incite my love to fearsome heights
oh i'm yours

and when you fly over
i'm lying in a field of four-leaf clover
writing love songs for no one

little bird
how could i pull you from the endless sky
little words
could never fill the place where you would fly
little hurts
wear you away until you die
until you're no one

i write words
map on the paper where my heart should be
i lost it overboard
into the sky from where i sail the grassy sea
you'll never know
the truth's a bird i'll never set free
what's it worth
you'd only get your fill of love songs from me

one of hair like silk
two of eyes like moons
three of lips like flowers
four of tears like jewels

two soft hands
would follow two familiar tracks
two would kiss like a valentino movie
fading into black

one for lucky losses
halfway escapes
three for hidden treasures
four for airplanes

and i don't see you fly over
i pick another four-leaf clover
lucky for nothing

you're flying over
your shadow plays across my shoulder
i'm writing love songs for no one
