i'd sing about you

if i was a beatle i'd sing about yesterday

if i was james taylor i'd sing about fire and rain

if i was elvis i'd sing about my shoes

but since i'm just me

i'd sing about you

if i was hank williams it'd be about heartache and pain

if i was tom petty i'd sing about mary jane

if i was ole willie i'd sing about eyes that are blue

but since i'm just me

i'd sing about you

'cause you are the perfect melody

you are every note i'd sing

every word i'd write

even when i'm out of tune

all i can be is me

and sing about you

if i was jimmy buffett i'd sing about swimmin'

if i was a stone it'd be about honky tonk women

if i was ole blue eyes i'd sing fly me to the moon

but since i'm just me

i'd sing about you

'cause you are the perfect melody

and you are every note i'd sing

every word i'd write

even when i'm out of tune

all i can be is me

and sing about you

leila

amanda

maggie may and june

the only thing missin' is

you are the perfect melody

and you are every note i'd sing

every word i'd write

even when i'm out of tune

all i can be is me

and i'd sing about you

all i care to be is me

singin' 'bout you

you know i'd sing about you
