about

A musical introduction to writing a love song

lyrics

Sing Me a Love Song
Words and music by David Michael King © 2011 (BMI)

Don’t bring me roses
Keep the perfume
Find yourself a new way
To say “I love you”
Give me a gift
No money could buy
Grab that guitar
And look into my eyes

Sing Me a Love Song
You wrote just for me
With lyrics of longing
A haunting melody
Strum a gentle beat
Add words sad and sweet
Sing me my love song tonight

The wind in my hair
A moonlit balcony
I will play the muse
For all your poetry
Find words that rhyme
With “lovely” and “bright”
Keep adding more
I’ve got all night

Compose the bridge
In a minor key
To show you’d feel sad
If I should leave
Be sure your voice soars
When you sing of my eyes
If you choose the right words
I might even cry.
