I Wrote This Song for You lyrics

I wrote this song for you.

I know you'll like the lyrics and the melody.

It's everything a tune should be.

I wrote this song for you.

It sounds just like a record on the radio

or television show, it's so enticing

the publisher's fighting

with me on the phone.

I wrote this song for you.

You won't believe the cellos and the violins.

They're really gonna do you in.

I wrote this song for you.

The story's kind of old, but what a chorus line.

It hooks you every time, it's so exciting

I'm thinking of buying

a home in Bel Aire, yeah, 

yeah, yeah.

You'll hear the harmonies that carry the tune

through the chords of love I'm feelin' for you, baby.

And if I go away, you can play it all day

and know that I'll be always close to you, yeah.

You'll hear the harmonies that carry the tune

through the chords of love I'm feelin' for you, sweet baby.

And if I go away, you can play it all day

and know that I'll be always close to you.

I wrote this song for you.

I'm hoping it's the single on my next LP.

It really means a lot to me.

I wrote this song for you

and maybe it'll make it on the record charts

and break the ladies' hearts, it's so surprising

the magic of writing, baby,

and what it can do, yeah,

yeah, yeah.

Ooh, I wrote this song for you.

It really means a lot to me.

Ooh, I wrote a song for you.

Ooh whee, baby.
