How To Write a Love Song

HOW TO WRITE A LOVE SONG
I know the hurt belongs, 
or it would not be here.
when life is always going wrong,
then nothing's quite so dear
as hope, there is in loving you,
if only to survive,
the only thing in life  I have
that's keeping me alive.
I know the pain belongs
or I'd not feel a thing,
each time I write another song,
that only I can sing
to let you know your song is here,
this love I've known so strong,
this hope, this pain, this feeling I
have loved you for this long.
I know the hurt belongs,
or I'd not feel it's touch,
and never write another song,
revealing just how much
I've loved you and for all this time,
you'll hear it in each song,
and listening to the words, you'll know
how much, and for how long.
