I'd Rather Write a Symphony

I'd rather write a symphony Than play this lonely melody You know I just gotta bring it all out So if you need my company Open your eyes, look at me While I'm singing my life away I'd rather hear your interlude Than live my life in solitude You know it's so hard to play it alone So if you need me close to you Stay by my side and help me through While I'm singing my pain away Often we're aching We're so easily breaking My fingers are shaking Oh, I gotta hang on to myself Often it's trying Hiding tears when I'm crying When somethin' is wrong It's hard to be strong The minute they're gone I'll carry on I'd rather share your sympathy Than sail away in majesty You know I'm dying to have you around I'd rather write a symphony Than play this lonly melody You know I just gotta bring it all out So if you need my company Open your eyes, look at me While I'm singing my life away
