Lyrics
I sat down to write you a love song
Waiting for the words to come around
Putting pen to paper I looked up and you were gone
I don't feel like writing love songs anymore
(chorus)
I knew your name was Stephanie
I called you Dawn
I thought that I was over her, but I was wrong
One too many names to remember, Dawn
You're why I don't write love songs anymore
My life's a shoebox of memories
Hidden on a dusty shelf
Stephanie you found your way to me
But I want my dusks to have a Dawn
(bridge)
Why do I bother with other lovers
Cause this song belongs to Dawn
(repeat chorus)
I sat down to write you a love song
Waiting for the words to come around
Putting pen to paper I looked up and you were gone
I don't feel like writing love songs anymore
( repeat chorus)
