I’LL WRITE A GREAT SONG (ABOUT YOU SOMEDAY) Pragati Nautiyal Miranda House
I'll write a great song about you someday With pretty lines reminding one of heartbreak Yet I fail over and over to string words the right way So I write this song only to soothe my mind today I can't understand all the feelings you left in my barren heart I stitch words together hoping it mends me before I fall apart Hold on to these pieces of my heart that I scatter along the way I promise my darling, I'll write a great song about you someday -I'll write a great song about you someday That evokes memories of love in people filled with hate Making one curse the ugly tricks played by fate The world rejoicing our story, for now I suffer and wait In silent nights and loud sites, when only you feel like home In places you have not seen, trying to find a way but I don't So this song remains a mess, a reflection of how I feel Sing this with me today, I'll write a better one when I heal -I'll write a great song about you someday Filled with memories of the little moments we'd shared In the song we'll come alive, falling in love one final time In the lines, the perfect rhymes, I'll write the exact words Describing how it felt when you came and changed my world My heart will bleed through the ink with which I'll write the song But once I write the last word, I will finally move on Leaving behind everything that bound me for so long Till then I'll sing this imperfect song Till then you'll be an imperfect song --
