Write a song and put your heart in it
And don't listen when they say you should slow down a bit
Write a song and it can be a piece of gold
Something to look back while you're growing old

And don't let them take away your pride
It's in your soul deep down inside
So let it out and make it strong
And write a song, write a song

Write a song about where you're from
The people that you know the place where you belong
Write a song and spread it to the world
Try your wings and ride the winds like a bird

Tell them about your grief and pleasure
The harmonies will build a treasure
And even if the damage is done
You can write a song, write a song

Write a song and tell them who you are
Climb the highest mountains reaching for the stars
Write a song so they won't forget your name
Cos in the end life is just a silly game

A short struggle turning every stone
Without knowing what's going on
So hurry up before it's gone
And write a song, write a song
Write a song"
