[Verse 1]
I woke up this morning
And realized
All I do is apologize
For a song I wrote in 2005
Didn't come with a warning
But fame is unkind
Put me on top of the world
Couple of girls and then
Left me behind
[Pre-Chorus]
Sure, let's take a photograph
You can show it to your friends and laugh
I'll tell you what I'm doing now
But you don't really wanna know
[Chorus 1]
I wrote you a love song
Now it's something that you hate on
And I'm sad the record's broken
But I don't think I can write a better love song
Without it I'd be no one
And now that you've forgotten me
Tell me how to write one better
[Verse 2]
I'm not gonna lie
And say it didn't work out
'cause I live in a big house
Made a few pounds
Nice car on the drive
And I went round the world once or twice
Saw the sunset and sunrise
But for big highs, there's a big price
When all you do is criticise
[Pre-Chorus]
Sure, let's take a photograph
You can show it to your friends and laugh
I'll tell you what I'm doing now
But you don't really wanna know
[Chorus 1]
I wrote you a love song
Now it's something that you hate on
And I'm sad the record's broken
But I don't think I can write a better love song
Without it I'd be no one
And now that you've forgotten me
Tell me how to write one better
[Bridge]
I don't think I can write one better
[Chorus 2]
I wrote you a love song
Now it's something that you hate on
And I'm sad the record's broken
But I don't think I can write one better love song
Now it's something that you hate on
And I'm sad the record's broken
But I don't think I can write a better love song
Without it I'd be no one
Now that you've forgotten me
Just tell me how to write one better
[Outro]
I woke up this morning
And realized
All I do is apologize
For a song I wrote in 2005
