Letter from My Lonelier Self

Here is a letter from my lonelier self
To the one that's in love once again
I couldn't find you so I thought that I would tell
You a few things with my favorite blue pen
This year's been a hard one
Yeah I made so many big mistakes
I lost the heart that I'd been given
So when it's love don't wait to say what it is
Mmmmmm
When it's love don't wait to say what it is
After the fire is when the neighbors all come out
Their sadness dripping with relief it wasn't them
And all your thoughts turn solid cause you've lost everything else
And you need a place to lay your head
And in the vacant silence of a lost Manhattan boulevard
You'll hear the answers if you listen
When it's love don't wait to say what it is
Mmmmmmm
When it's love don't wait to say what it is
And I see couples kissing with their arms and fingers locked so tight
I hope they say the words we didn't
When it's love don't wait to say what it is
Mmmmmmm
And don't trade love for an aimless embrace of the wind
Mmmmmmm
Please don't lose your love the way that I did
Here is a letter from my lonelier self
To the one that's in love once again
Mmmmmmm
