I wanna write you a song,
one as beautiful as you are sweet.
Just a hint of pain for the feeling that I get
when you are gone, I wanna write you a song.
I wanna lend you my coat,
one that's as soft as your cheek.
So when the world is cold,
you will have a hiding place you can go.
I wanna lend you my coat.
Ooh, everything I need I get from you.
Ooh, and giving back is all I wanna do.
I wanna build you a boat,
One as strong as you are free.
So anytime you think that your heart is gonna sink
you know it won't, I wanna build you a boat.
Ooh, everything I need I get from you.
Ooh, and giving back is all I wanna do.
Instrumental: ( E A )
Ooh, everything I need I get from you.
Ooh, and giving back is all I wanna do.
I wanna write you a song.
One to make your heart remember me.
So anytime I'm gone you can listen to my voice and sing along.
I wanna write you a song, I wanna write you a song.
