Lighthouse Row - Love Song Lyrics

Why do they write the love songs
With the same damn message
The same damn message
Oh the handsome boy comes and saves the girl
From a life without love
But what about the kids who can't relate
To a single song about the perfect date
I would love to see a song about that

Say something like
He started to love, but not like that
She was a gorgeous girl, but she's more than that
He wanted to be her friend forever
And leave it there
And she never really cared for all the guys
But her heart began racing when she met the eyes
Of the pretty girl who lived across the street

You never have to have a romance
To make a story
You never need a girl and boy
To make a happy ending
Your lives never revolve around
The person who makes your heart
Drop to the ground

You're more than what they're selling

You've got ten thousand ways to live
Without ever writing a love song
They act like you haven't lived
Before you've kissed another's lips
But they're so, so wrong
You are so much more than all of that
You're an enigma and you're so much more than that

So maybe you don't like the folks you've met
And that's never a bad thing
Never a bad thing
Maybe they just aren't your cup of tea
Or maybe you've never had the urge to date
And sometimes that just might be your fate
But you shouldn't feel bad

You never have to have a romance
To make a story
You never need a girl and boy
To make a happy ending
Your lives never revolve around
The person who makes your heart
Drop to the ground

You're more than what they're selling

You've got ten thousand ways to live
Without ever writing a love song
They act like you haven't lived
Before you've kissed another's lips
But they're so, so wrong
You are so much more than all of that
You're an enigma and you're so much more than that

So you've given up on all your hopes and dreams
Cos you just haven't found the one
But your heart doesn't belong to anyone but you
But you

You've got ten thousand ways to live
Without ever writing a love song
They act like you haven't lived
Before you've kissed another's lips
But they're so, so wrong
You are so much more than all of that
You're an enigma and you're so much more than that
