Dance along to a new anthem for the lonely hearts - a smooth and seductive track produced by Jasper, showcasing Maeve's raw, honest and relatable lyrics. '(i’m not good at writing) love songs' tells a familiar tale of heartbreak set to shimmering, luscious hooks, with an addictively catchy pop chorus kicking in at 0:41. Maeve's refined vocals are soothing and inviting, making this the perfect Valentines Day track for broken hearts and those still on the quest for love.
lyrics
They said ask me anything, so I’m asking this
How does one go through so much pain? because I’m not used to it
Because I’ve felt heartbreak and I’ve had heartache, but I’m losing control
I had heartache and I’ve no more hearts to break
They can read all of my feelings right from my face
They talk to me all smug, they say I ruin the chase
But I can’t tell what they are feeling, leaves me guessing
But they’re already away, before I say
I’m not good at writing love songs
I give too much away
I guess that’s why my heart gets broken in so many ways
I’m not good at writing love songs
I give too much away
I guess that’s why my heart gets broken in so many ways
I’ve always made my feelings known
Too many times I’ve been exposed
I know I should have learnt by now, but I am yet to
I don’t know how to mask my feelings, they just come through
They can read all of my feelings right from my face
They talk to me all smug, they say I ruin the chase
But I can’t tell what they are feeling, leaves me guessing
But they’re already away, before I say
I’m not good at writing love songs
I give too much away
I guess that’s why my heart gets broken in so many ways
I’m not good at writing love songs
I give too much away
I guess that’s why my heart gets broken in so many ways
Give me a break I think I need it
I’m hard enough on myself, I don’t need any feedback
Give me a break, I’m losing hope now
Too much, not enough, always end up in the same place
I’m not good at writing love songs
I give too much away
I guess that’s why my heart gets broken in so many ways
I’m not good at writing love songs
I give too much away
I guess that’s why my heart gets broken in so many ways
I’m not good at writing love songs
I give too much away
I guess that’s why my heart gets broken in so many ways
