I'll Write These Songs:
words/music: Brandon Wiard

Young enough to be my sister
Just to kiss her on the cheek
don't mean any serious harm
youth is wasted on the young
swivels her hips like a Spanish dancer
as she listens to the band
sit here lost in daydream fever
where my hair's brushed aside by her hand

I'll write these songs for her
to see the way she moves when I sing
give her a look like
"Rome is my empire"
but it won't mean a thing
she's like
"Who's Julius Caesar?"
she's all of 17

{Probably never come to pass}

Probably never come to pass
that she'll ever hear these words
if she does she won't believe
credit is so well deserved
probably have to bite my lip
and then go out to the car
kick myself like any grown-man should

when he's gone a step too far

I'll write these songs for her
to see the way she moves when I sing
give her a look like
"Rome is my empire"
but it won't mean a thing
she's like
"Who's Julius Caesar?"
she's all of 17

Please, some help me now!
I cannot figure out
how I'll ever make it alone
put the pretty girls away
so they are safe from me
I'm going out of my skull

I'll write these songs for her
to see the way she moves when I sing
give her a look like
"Rome is my empire"
but it won't mean a thing
she's like
"Who's Julius Caesar?"
she's all of 17
