Running Out of Songs Lyrics

I feel like I’ve played too many chords
And written too many words
To catch you by surprise
Or say something brand new
Oh, baby, it’s true
I’m running out of songs
Songs I wish I’d written for you

I feel like I’ve loved too many times
The subject of my rhymes
I wish that we had met at the start of my youth
Oh, babe, that’s the truth
I’m running out of songs
Songs I wish I’d written for you
Songs I wish I’d written for you
Pa, pa-ra, pa-ra, pa-ra, pa-pa-ra, pa-ra-pa

But if I could write it all again
It’d be something like this
La-la, la-la, lala, la-la, la-la-la
And if I could live it all again you’re the one that I’d pick
La-la, la-la, lala, la-la, la-la-la
La-la, la-la, lala, la-la, la-la-la
La-la, la-la, lala, la-la, la-la-la

I feel like I’ve lived too many years
Blinded by the fear
That everyone I love will be taken from me
Oh, inevitably
I even wrote a song
But I digress my love
I’m scared I’d write another one
Another goodbye song
But this time I would write it for you
Don’t know what to do
Don’t wanna write a song
Another sad song written ’bout you
No I don’t, no I don’t

But if I could write it all again
It’d be something like this
La-la, la-la, lala, la-la, la-la-la
And if I could live it all again, you’re the one that I’d pick
La-la, la-la, lala, la-la, la-la-la
Drowned by the singing of the crowd you’re the one that I’d miss
La-la, la-la, lala, la-la, la-la-la
‘Cause yours is the loveliest name to come out of my lips

La-la, la-la, lala, la-la, la-la-la
La-la, la-la, lala, la-la, la-la-la
La-la, la-la, lala, la-la, la-la-la
La-la, la-la, lala, la-la, la-la-la
I feel like I need to know you more
There’s still so much to learn
