Eleanor McEvoy
You’ll Hear Better Songs (Than This)
[Verse 1]
You'll hear better songs than this
With no trace of clumsiness
Melodies and harmonies that compliment the rhyme
Favourite songs that reminisce
Speak of times of happiness
With sentiments that make you warm inside

[Verse 2]
And you'll hear voices pure and fine
Voices far surpassing mine
Hitting notes I'd never reach and never will I s'pose
And phrases I could never play
You will hear them any day
Played by people wearing younger clothes

[Chorus]
But this song has a prayer to you
No other song on earth can do
This song swears my love for you
Until the end of time
If you need to hear the blues
Go put on those other tunes
If you need my love, go put on mine

[Verse 3]
You'll hear better songs than this
Songs so full of loveliness
I would not compare my song to anyone of those
When I need to play the blues
I will play those other tunes
But I will say I love you with my own
[Chorus]
This song has a prayer to you
No other song on earth can do
This song swears my love for you
Until the end of time
If you need to hear the blues
Go put on those other tunes
If you need my love, go put on mine
