Trying to Square a Circle

Piano saying nothing to me
I pick up my well worn guitar
Trying to write a song about you
About all the things you are

Looking for those special words
Seems like trying to lasso the moon
Don’t want a grand crescendo
Just a heartfelt tune

No need trying to square a circle
To get things to ring true
Keep it simple, let my heart speak
(Keep it simple straight from my heart)
Something like I love you
I love you should do
Simple as I love you

Five chords will do it, my quiet thoughts
They will speak the beauty and truth
Like when I hold you in my arms
And whisper I love you
