I found a letter this morning I wrote long agoIt was folded and tucked into an old envelopeIn the back of a Bible that I haven't touched in yearsNow I'm holding these pages that you'll never readAnd it's sad even now you could never concedeThat your leaving, your cheating was ever in your controlWell you got what you asked for you're all by yourselfAnd I've still got your picture face down on the shelfI remember the days when we laughed and we criedBefore the spoils of love left you rotten insideNow the love that you lost is the one thing you'll never findWell they say every girl hits a quarter-life crisisDecides what she wants and then changes her mind everydayBut for you there was a change in your heart tooI miss the way that you'd look at me just brown eyes to blueEven after you wandered, even after I knewI still loved you, you're the only thing I ever lived forNow the poetic justice it's more than I needHow you're stuck in Columbus still making ends meetAnd your best friends and boyfriends are using you upLike a fountain of youth and there's never enoughSongtexteThey're all scared half to death to get oldNow you're in the same ruts going down the same roadAnd the life that you missed is the one thing you'll never knowNow I'm in California, the one place you dreamedYou could start a new life, a life without meAnd I'm setting my roots down in your promised landThat you wanted so bad it slipped right through your handsAnd I feel like I'm normal againI'm finding it easier to smile, I don't have to pretendThere's a part of me that wants you to comeBut there's far too much damage that can't be undoneAnd it's hard to believeNow the rabbit has the gun Aus Songtexte Mania
