Got to write a classic Got to write it in an attic Babe, I'm an addict now An addict for your love I was a stray boy And you was my best toy Found it easy to annoy you But you were different from the rest And I loved you all the wrong ways Now listen to my say If it changed to another way Would the difference make it Would it be a classic I gotta send it right away
Expressing my words One bridge at a time Then tearing them up 'Cause they never rhyme Alone in my room So far from your love Whatever I write That's not good enough And it's not what I mean I mean it's not what it seems I just keep living for dreams
Got to write a classic Got to write it in an attic Babe, I'm an addict now An addict for your love Gotta write it down and send it right away Got to write a classic Got to write it in an attic Babe, I'm an addict now An addict for your love
Now I'm living my life One day at a time Since losing your love I've been losing my mind No more can I see The future so clear And it's not what I mean I mean it's not what it seems I just keep living for dreams And it's not what I mean I mean it's not what it seems I just keep living for dreams
Got to write a classic Got to write it in an attic Babe, I'm an addict now I'm an addict for your love Gotta write it down and send it right away
