That's Why I Write Songs Paroles

Might help you make it through a bad goodbye
'Cause you've been through it and so have I
That's why I write songs

I remember all the times I felt
Like somebody knows me all too well
'Cause it was my life story I was listening to
I don't know about you

But I've buried loved ones and a few good friends
I've held a brand new baby in my hands
It ain't just what I do, it's who I am
And that's why I write songs

I remember how it blew my mind
When I played my song and watched a grown man cry
And it was at that moment I just knew
What I was born to do

Most songwriters never get the fame Whitey Shafer or Whispering Bill
All the times they ever gave me chills
That's why I write songs
