We used to write each other letters Such beautiful letters And every time I'd see my name in her handwriting on an envelope My day would get a bit better I didn't forget her How could I ever forget her? But now all that's left on my desk in the dust and neglect Is some envelopes, empty as ever It's a terrible thing to share everything that you've got With the one person who matters And have it not really matter We used to write each other letters And then one day you dried up Just imagined you were kinda tied up God only knows I didn't want to impose So I just bit my tongue with a stiff lip Until it was far too late for me to even contemplate Writing again just to ask where you'd been So I guess we just settled on stalemate It's a terrible thing to share everything that you've got With the one person who matters And have it not really matter We used to write each other letters It's a terrible thing to share everything that you've got With the one person who matters Have it not really matter We used to write each other letters Yeah, goddammit now, this wasn't part of the plan I let you down, but please understand You have to bear with me if I'm fucking this up Because the truth is I'm useless at opening up Both of us know it wasn't love in the end You were more of a teacher, a distant best friend I've been missing our missives, and mourning our youth And if we got on the phone, we'd tell each other the truth and say "I'm tired of just making do, I'm tired of just muddling through Aren't you tired of making do? I'm tired of muddling through" It's a terrible thing to share everything that you've got With the one person who matters And have it not really matter We used to write each other letters But it's a curious thing to doubt everything that you've got Get saved by a stranger You knew when you were younger I'm going to write another letter I need to try and put it better I need to try and put it better I started writing you a letter
