lyrics

I wasn't sure what I was looking for
I wasn't really trying to find you
Because you were not likely to excist
I guess that means you're too good to be true

Well, here's your song
Wrote it just for you
Although I'm not an Ed
I hope it will do

I often didn't buy a word
Of all the love songs that I heard
But you can believe this one's true

I know it's all been sung before
But still I had to add one more
Because there wasn't one yet about you

Your name's already in a lot of songs
It was sung much better than I can
It's getting hard to find the words for you
So I'll just use the same ones once again

Well, here's your song
Wrote it just for you
Although I'm not an Ed
I hope it will do

You never fail to make my day
Now I can't stop singing clichés
But please don't mind that I do

A million love songs in this world
About a million boys and girls
But it still lacked one about you
