NOT ANOTHER

from MEME WISH by Jon Epworth

/

lyrics

write what you know
that's what they say
but when it comes to writing me
it doesn't really work that way
i'm never sure just where to start
always shooting from the hip
but never through the heart

I have known joy
i have known doubt
i have known many kinds of love
and I have gone without
and when I find I'm on the brink
of saying how I really feel
I end up saying what I think

but we don't need another love song
so I'm not gonna make it
we don't need another heartfelt serenade
I can feel it but I just won't fake it
we don't need another love song
broken hearts and relationships
we don't need to hear about your ups and downs
when the world is going to bits

please don't be discouraged
I'm merely a tourist
I wouldn't know a story if it hit me in the face
so you can skip to the chorus
you can keep all your ballads
belt them out in the shower
I keep my love between me and my love
and hey - that's what gives it its power

but we don't need another love song
so I'm not gonna make it
we don't need another heartfelt serenade
I can feel it but I just won't fake it
we don't need another love song
broken hearts and relationships
we don't need to hear about your ups and downs
when the world is going to bits
