here s the love song i never wrote for you it s the only way i m gonna get through to you i sent a carrier pigeon from trafalgar square it flew across the atlantic and fell through the air into the sea no wonder why it never wrote back see here s the love song i never wrote for you it s sinking deeper into the ocean blue it now lies on the seabed it gently subsides and the wandering mermaid it catches her eye it catches her eye no wonder why you never wrote back to me i had it all i had the world figured out words that i wrote for you and for me they got washed into the sea she read the note and followed the words to me if only you would sail the seas for me she got out of the water and onto the land my mythical mistress the note in her hand the note in her hand no wonder why you never wrote back to me i had it all i had the world figured out words that i wrote for you and for me they got washed into the sea see here s the love song i never wrote for you it s the only way i m gonna get through to you you thought that i had a lover it was your wish she had the top of a woman the tail of a fish the tale of a fish it s the song for us for any of us
