I Wanna Write You a Symphony

I wanna write you a symphony
Replete with cannon and timpani
All four movements in different keys
Then maybe you'd see me differently

I wanna write you an epic poem
Where the hero fights for his love at home
('Cause that's what happens in an epic poem)
Bind it myself in leather tomes
Then maybe you'd read me differently

But all i've got is this stupid tune
And that's not enough to make you feel the way i do

I wanna write you a big hit record
(Wanna write you a symphony)
Sing the words in a southern accent
Print all the copies from a platinum lacquer
Put your face on the dust jacket

Wanna knit you a sweater wanna write you a love letter
But you know Joni just did it better
If only i were a little more clever
Maybe you'd see me differently

But all i've got is this stupid tune
And that's not enough to make you feel the way i do

All i've got is this minor chord, line cliches
That's all i've got to make you feel this way

I wanna write you a symphony
Hell let's make it a trilogy
Let it loop for infinity
Maybe you'll love me
Maybe you'll love me
Maybe you'll love me
Maybe you'll love me differently
