Song About Nothing

I'm gonna write a song about nothing
Ain't gonna talk about travelling far or near
I'm not gonna sing about things that I've forgotten
I'm not gonna ask what we're all doing here

I don't wanna sing about loneliness or sorrow
And no stories about some father and his son
Let's not discuss my views on tomorrow
Or just where I think we're all coming from

The rising cost, the love I lost
Sad memories no one wants to hear
I thought I might just simply write
A melody that's pleasing to your ear

Peaceful sunny days I will not mention
No politics, no sad depressing theme
To take you up or down's not my intention
I just wanna leave you somewhere in between

What can I do with a word or two?
And so, I'll stop before I start
'Cause right or wrong, no single song
Can change the feeling in your heart

So I thought I'd sing simply about nothing
Nobody's then offended by my song
'Cause words are almost always soon forgotten
But melodies just linger on, and on...
