Lyrics I Wanna Learn a Love Song

I come fresh from the street

Fast on my feet

Kinda lean and lazy

Not much meat on my bones and a whole lot alone and more than a little bit crazy

The old six string was all I had to keep my belly still

And for each full hour lesson I gave

I got a crisp ten dollar bill

She was married for seven years to a concrete castle king

She said she wanted to learn to play the guitar and to hear her children sing

So I'd show up about once a week in my faded tight-legged jeans

With a backlog full of hobo stories and dilapidated dreams

She said

I wanna learn a love song

Full of happy things

She said

I wanna learn a love song

Won't you let me hear you sing

She said I

I wanna learn a love song

I wanna hear you play

She said I

I wanna learn a love song before you go away

So I tried to teach her a couple of chords and an easy melody

But it always turned out she'd rather listen to my guitar and me

I could hear her old man laughin' in the den

Playin' stud poker with the boys

While I sang so soft in the livin' room

Too scared to make much noise

I came one week and the den was dark and she met me at the door

And we sat on the couch and we sang and talked 'till we could not sing no more

The silence kept on buildin'

Her eyes grew much too wide

And I could hear both of our heartbeats but there was no place to hide

She said

I wanna learn a love song

Full of happy things

She said

I wanna learn a love song

Won't you let me hear you sing

She said I

I wanna learn a love song

I wanna hear you play

She said I

I wanna learn a love song before you go away

Well I guess you know what happened

God I

I never been so clean

Yes I feel like I'm workin' in a Hollywood movie or livin' out a good bad dream

And all them pin-up girls in that tinsel world never touched me like she can

It took another man's wife in the real world life to make this boy a man

She said

I wanna learn a love song

Full of happy things

She said

I wanna learn a love song

Won't you let me hear you sing

She said I

I wanna learn a love song

I wanna hear you play

She said I

I wanna learn a love song before you go away

I guess you know I stayed
