From the recording Got to Write This Letter

Lyrics

(GOT TO WRITE) THIS LETTER


There is no rest for the weary
My heart is racing so
I want so bad to be near someone I know
I hide my head under covers
Hoping that sleep will come
To rescue me from the lovers come and gone
They slipped right through my fingers
I let them get away
I didn't know I'd miss them so some day

That's why I've got to write this letter
I've got to make you see
There is no one better than you are for me

This is no time to be cautious
Peruse the how and why
It's time to live by the creed of do or die
I'm just so tired of reacting
Trying to shield the blows
Just when this cell became shelter, no one knows
I looked at every roadmap
There's no place else to be
But innocence when things made sense to me

That's why I've got to write this letter
Explaining things somehow
I've got to make things better than they are right now
I've got to write this letter
Before it gets too late
Try to make some sense out of this shattered state

I've looked at every roadmap
There's no place else to be
But innocence when things made sense to me

That's why I've got to write this letter
I've got to write this letter
Got to write this letter, got to write it now
I've got to write this letter
And try to make things better
Got to write this letter, got to write it now
I've got to write this letter
And get to you somehow
Got to write this letter, got to write it now
