lyrics
Gonna write you a letter even if it's an old art.
Emails are impersonal, this is from my heart.
Couldn't tell you what I felt through typing.
Had to form the distant words with my own handwriting.
Gonna write you a letter.
And Dear you.
How have you been?
I've been sitting around here waiting on you my friend.
And there are times when I forget why we had to end.
Then I slowly remember,
you asked me for something I couldn't give.
And Dear you.
Life's been a blur of pictures since you left.
I'm in the room, where we had our last argument.
You said you loved me, and that I was your forever.
I whispered back, “I don't know what to say to that.”
And Dear you.
How have you been?
I've been sitting around here waiting on you my friend.
And there are times when I forget why we had to end.
Then I slowly remember,
you asked me for something I couldn't give.
And Dear you.
Scratch, scratch go the words on the paper I just couldn't say.
Flow, flow come the memories that I pushed away.
Breath in, breath out this is what I have to do.
What do I say?
Dear you.
How have you been?
If I wasn't afraid, I would have told you I loved you then.
And I got an invitation today.
Asking me to attend yours and Sarah's wedding at the end of may.
And Dear you.
I lost my chance on that day.
So I'll let you live your life.
I'll throw this letter away.
Emails are impersonal, this is from my heart.
Couldn't tell you what I felt through typing.
Had to form the distant words with my own handwriting.
Gonna write you a letter.
And Dear you.
How have you been?
I've been sitting around here waiting on you my friend.
And there are times when I forget why we had to end.
Then I slowly remember,
you asked me for something I couldn't give.
And Dear you.
Life's been a blur of pictures since you left.
I'm in the room, where we had our last argument.
You said you loved me, and that I was your forever.
I whispered back, “I don't know what to say to that.”
And Dear you.
