Rachel:
Head under water
And they tell me
To breathe easy for a while
Breathing gets harder
Even I know there's
A made room for me
It's too soon to see
If I'm happy in your hands
I'm unusually hard to hold on to
Blank stares at blank pages
No easy way to say this
You mean well but you make this hard on me
Rachel and Santana:
I'm not gonna write you a love song
Cause you asked for it, cause you need one
You see, I'm not gonna write you a love song
Cause you tell me it's make or break in this
If you're on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
If all you have is leaving
I'm gonna need a better reason
To write you a love song today
Rachel:
Today, yea-hey
Oh
Quinn:
I learned the hard way
That they all say
Things you want to hear
My heavy heart
Sinks deep down under you
Santana:
And your twisted words
Your help just hurts
You are not what I thought you were
Hello to high and dry
Rachel:
Convinced me to please you
Rachel and Santana:
Made me think that I need this too
I'm trying to let you hear me (and Quinn: as I am)
Santana:
I'm not gonna write you a love song
Rachel and Santana:
Cause you asked for it, cause you need one
Quinn, Rachel, and Santana:
You see, I'm not gonna write you a love song
Cause you tell me it's make or break in this
If you're on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
Rachel and Santana:
If all you have is leaving
I'm gonna need a better reason
To write you a love song today
Quinn with Rachel and Santana vocalizing:
Promise me
That you'll leave the light on
To help me see
The daylight, my guide, gone
Santana with Quinn and Rachel vocalizing:
Cause I believe there's a way
You can love me because I say
Rachel:
I won't write you a love song
Cause you asked for it, cause you need one
Quinn:
You see, I'm not gonna write you a love song
Cause you tell me it's make or break in this
Quinn, Rachel, and Santana:
Is that why you wanted a love song? (Quinn: Hey, yeah)
Rachel and Santana:
Cause you asked for it
Quinn, Rachel, and Santana:
Cause you need one
You see, I'm not gonna write you a love song
Rachel and Santana:
(Quinn: Write you a love song) Cause you tell me it's
Quinn, Rachel, and Santana:
Make or break in this
If you're on your way
Rachel and Santana:
I'm not gonna write you
Quinn, Rachel, and Santana:
(Quinn: Write you) to stay
Rachel and Santana (Quinn):
If your heart is nowhere in it
I don't want it (and Quinn: for a minute, babe)
I'll walk the seven seas (Walk the seven seas)
When I believe that there's a reason to write you (Write you)
Quinn, Rachel, and Santana:
A love song
Rachel and Santana:
Today
Quinn:
Today (Rachel: Hey, today)
I won't write you a love song (Santana: Ee-yeah, hey)
Today
Rachel:
I won't write you a love song
Quinn, Rachel, and Santana:
Today
