Description: I wrote this song about a pretty heavy realization-that I am the type of person who can get so hung up on the words "I love you", that I completely miss the ways that "I love you" is shown and not told. I don't think I'm alone in this, so let this song serve as a reminder that if you are looking too hard for love, you will easily miss it.

lyrics

3 little words
Seem to mock me
And continue to serve a need
Thats greedy and plenty

An urge that no truth
Can quite satisfy
A kind of sweet tooth
Without a piece of the pie, that

Quenches my thirst and
Makes me less hurt
Oh I think I can find it at
The bottom of this drink

Me, under the table
Not standing too stable
Because I’m looking for something
You cannot give

Pull me in and push me out
Like a river running fast
Washing all the pain of past
Drown me in the sound

Of I love you
And I’ll never leave
Feed me promises of now
Even though we don’t know how
To keep from us, ending

2 little birds
Sing a melody
We’ve heard before
But its changed in some ways

Now when I listen for them
I expect the worst
A mangled and tangled
Sour-sweet melody

And its not their fault
No, its neither one to blame
Cause for every melody sweet
Every powerful beat is a dying flame
