The Song I'll Never Write - Gary Barlow

Although it’s here in every breath I take

I just can’t bear to share the thought

Don’t wanna hear my voice or find the key

To unlock this door

(Pre-Chorus 1)

For the first time in my life

I refuse to quantify in notes & rhymes

(Chorus)

It’s the song that I could never write

It means too much I’d never try

Nothin' to add I’d only take away

It’s the song I’m not prepared to share

Or hear its message on the air

The words would be too personal to say

So I’ll just take the day off today

(Verse)

It’s like the loudest voice inside my head

But I’m the only one that hears

Won’t let my pain and paper ever meet

No I won’t hear my tears

(Pre-Chorus 2)

It won’t get out I’m far too strong

To let these feelings be three minutes long

(Chorus)

It’s the song that I could never write

It means too much I’d never try

Nothin' to add I’d only take away

It’s the song I’m not prepared to share

Or hear its message on the air

The words would be too personal to say

So I’ll just take the day off today

(Verse)

It’s alright it’s ok, I go through this everyday

It won’t escape I’m awake, it won’t end up on the page

Not in this life

That’s the song that I will never write

(Chorus)

It’s the song that I could never write

It means too much I’d never try

Nothin' to add I’d only take away

It’s the song I’m not prepared to share

Or hear its message on the air

The words would be too personal to say

So I’ll just take the day off today

It’s the song that I can never find

It can’t be yours was never mine

That’s the song that I’ll never write
