I  don't know  how to make  lots of money
 I got debts  that I'm trying  to pay
 I can't buy  you nice things,  like big  diamond rings
 But that  don't mean much  anyway
 I can't give  you the house  you've been dreaming
 If I could  I would build  it alone
 I'd be out  there all day,  just hammering  away
Make  us a place  of our own
I  will write  you a song
That's  how you'll know  that my love  is still strong
I  will write  you a song
 And you'll know  from this song  that I just  can't go on  without you
 I don't know  that I'd make  a good soldier
 I don't believe  in being  violent and cruel
 I don't know  how to fight,  but I'll draw  blood tonight
 If somebody  tries  hurting you
I  will write  you a song
That's  how you'll know  that my love  is still strong
I  will write  you a song
 And you'll know  from this song  that I just  can't go on  without you
 Now that it's out  on the table (it's out on the table)
 Both of us knew  all along (knew all along)
 I've got your love  an then you've  got my song
 (soft)
 I don't know  how to make  lots of money
 I don't know  all the right  things to do
 I can't say  where we'll go,  but the one  thing I know
 Is how  to be a good  man to you
 Until  I die that's what I'll do
I  will write  you a song
That's  how you'll know  that my love  is still strong
I  will write  you a song
 And you'll know  from this song  that I just  can't go on  without...
I  will write  you a song  (I will write you a song)
That's  how you'll know  that my love  is still strong  (love is still strong)
I  will write  you a song
 And you'll know  from this song  that I just  can't go on  without you
