harry chapin - i wanna learn a love song (live) كلمات الأغنية

[intro]
oh, for nancy? this is for nancy. i never did it to nancy, so i’ll do it for her, okay? a_one, a_two, a_one two three four.

[verse 1]
i come fresh from the street, fast on my feet
kinda crass and corny
not much meat on my bones and a whole lot alone
and more than a little bit h_rny
the old six string was all i had
to keep my belly still
and for each full hour lesson i gave
i got a crisp ten dollar bill
[verse 2]
you see, she was married for seven years
to a concrete castle king
she said she wanted to learn to play the guitar
and to hear her children sing
so i’d show up about once a week
in my faded tight_legged jeans
with a backlog full of hobo stories
and dilapidatеd dreams

[chorus]
she said, “i wanna learn a lovе song
full of happy things”
she said, “i wanna learn a love song
won’t you let me hear you sing?”
she said, “i wanna learn a love song
i wanna hear you play”
she said, “i wanna learn a love song
before you go away”

[verse 3]
so i tried to teach her a couple of chords
and an easy melody
but it always turned out she’d rather listen
to my guitar and me
i could hear her old man laughing in the den
playing stud poker with the boys
while i sang so soft in the living room
too scared to make much noise
[verse 4]
i came one week, the den was dark
and she met me at the door
and we sat on the couch and we sang and talked
’til i could not sing no more
you know the silence kept on building
her eyes grew much too wide
and i could hear both of our heartbeats
but there was no place to hide

[chorus]
she said, “i wanna learn a love song
full of happy things”
she said, “i wanna learn a love song
won’t you let me hear you sing?”
she said, “i wanna learn a love song
i wanna hear you play”
she said, “i wanna learn a love song
before you go away”

[verse 5]
ah, i guess you know what happened
my god i, i never been so clean
i feel like i’m working in a hollywood movie
or living out a good bad dream
and all them pin_up girls in that tinsel world
never touched me like she can
it took another man’s wife in the real world life
to make this boy a man
[chorus]
she said, “i wanna learn a love song
full of happy things”
she said, “i wanna learn a love song
won’t you let me hear you sing?”
she said, “i wanna learn a love song
i wanna hear you play”
she said, “i wanna learn a love song
before you go away”

[outro]
i guess you know i stayed (ooh)
yeah!
