Same old Story

I wrote this song last night on three hours of sleep so it's still a little rough. But here it is nonetheless (I love that word) with all of its imperfections. Feedback whether good or terrible is most welcome! And thank you for listening.

Lyrics:

Rule number one: Don't write about the seasons
Rule number two: "I love you" is so overdone
Rule number three: Clichés are so boring
Everyone has said your eyes are blue
It's time to think of something new

Chorus:
But how do I tell you the same old story
With different wording
When the ending stays same

Here it goes: I love you when winter turns to spring
And something in this autumn air makes my heart want to sing
And now that I've broken 1-3 I hope you can forgive me
But I don't know how else to say
That my song will never change

Chorus

Is the never-changing Ever Green deleted from good poetry?
Will Milton soon be prose?
Why this fear of repeating what everybody knows?
So at the risk of sounding boring
And like everything you've heard before:

Your eyes are bluer than the glassy sea
The stars shine brighter when you're standing next to me
My heart races when your hand touches mine
You can read my thoughts—I think it might be a sign

This isn't Romeo and Juliet
I think I've made that clear
But I'm doing the best with what I have
Considering I'm not Shakespeare

Chorus twice
