For You

This the shit they gonna play, on every station every day

These the words you can't escape, girl i wrote this song for you

When you're drivin in your car pretending you don't know the words by heart

Girl i'll be your superstar, told you from the start i was gonna write a song for you

I'm trying to think back to that, after that,

Journey to your heart always seemin like i had the map

In these trips i've had to do, i was simply passin through

Was a dedication, now its chapter two

On these pages now i see that, when i'm with you i can't be that

Guy that you need now, so whats this story about?

It don't seem like you can figure it out

No, a lots change since we met up in june

This love you can't buy but you let it consume

And i try for you but it just don't work

I won't lie to you baby what's this worth?

All this fightin gets us nowhere

Losin you to the crowd

And there's no way we gon make this right

So baby go and turn your radio loud

An eternity of questions while answers she had none of

Still when i was with her toss and turn until the sun up

Wait for me to come up, don't let it blind you

I have half a mind to remind you

That i can't be there every time you need me

If you don't like that then you can leave me

But i won't sit here and have you tell me i'm wrong

'cause been right and i'll be writin till i'm gone

You say you lie awake waitin,

Like thats the reason we're fadin,

Keep blamin me it just ain't right

And it's not my fault you can't sleep at night

All this fightin got us nowhere

Lost you to the crowd

And you will see where went wrong

You just gotta turn your radio loud

Now i'm livin the life

We was doin it wrong, now we getting it right

Its been a long time since i written this song

Used to turn this off, now you singing along

And even though we're done for

Girl i'll prolly see you at my shows in the front row

Screamin out the words like i told you you would do

And even though it hurts, you always knew

That i was gonna write a song for you

Told you what i would do

Kept my word when i said i was gonna write a song for you
