Letter Never Sent
There's a letter that you never sent You wrote about an accident Of love and of you and of me and how we all collided In that letter that I never read I thought about what it might've said The fates and the stars and how hearts like ours can be guided How long can it take to write a few lines on a coffee break? Say "Hey old man, how's things? How are you feeling?" Maybe I'll write you instead, say "thank you for the words I read How I hope that you meant every letter that you never sent" In that letter that you never wrote You talk about how you used to quote Poems and prose of somebody called Dorothy Parker In that letter that I never read I remember how you once said Love is a volt like lights but sometimes it's darker And how long can it take to write a few lines on a coffee break? Say "Hey old man, how's things? Are you still smiling?" Oh I'm gonna write you instead, say "thank you for the words I read How I hope that you meant every letter that you never sent Oh for the love that you lent in the letters that you never sent" In the letters that you never sent In all the letters that you never sent In all the letters that you never sent You never sent Aus Songtexte Mania
