Windmills

Ben, why are you so sad today

Did you hear the song I wrote for you?

So, Ben, please don’t throw it all away

Give me a smile and play me a tune.

I don’t want anything more than that

So Ben keep smiling exactly like that.

You’re a writer, through and through

And I’d give anything to play like you

Don’t look away from your reflection

Can’t you recognise your own rejection?

I’m trying, I’m trying to do this right

And I’m sorry I couldn’t sleep tonight

I had to write a song, this one’s for you

And I’d give anything to write like you.

Ben, why are you so sad today

Did you hear the song I wrote for you?

So, Ben, please don’t throw it all away

Give me a smile and play me a tune.

The windmill’s turning and I can’t switch off

So open up the book and write it all out

Give me the music ‘cos I’ve not had enough

And give it some time, it’ll sort itself out.

You’re a writer, through and through

And I’d give anything to play like you

You’re a writer through and through

And I’d give anything to write like you

You’re a writer, through and through

And I’d give anything to play like you

You’re a writer through and through

And I’d give anything to write like you
