Postcards Home

Eyes open as the light streams through the curtain
only half closed
and the kink in my neck
and sleeping in my clothes again
reminds me that I'm not home
gotta go because we're leaving on a fifteen hour drive
but I'll call you sometime soon
to let you know that I'm alright
*Do you know what the world can bring
I wish you were here with me to see
the things that words cannot describe
sincerely me so long goodbye*
It's three am and we're driving through the desert
and the moon's bright
so bright in fact that I can almost write you
without turning on the map light
but I gotta let you go now because it's my turn to drive
but I'll have so much to tell you at home when we arrive
*Do you know what the world can bring
I wish you were here with me to see
the things that words cannot describe
sincerely me so long goodbye
So long goodbye*
Gotta go because we're leaving on a fifteen hour drive

to let you know that I'm alright
Do you know what the world can bring

the things that words cannot describe
sincerely me so long goodbye.
