Caught out running With just a little too much to hide Maybe baby Everything's gonna work out fine Please read the letter I pinned it to your door It's crazy how it all turned out We needed so much more Too late, too late A fool could read the signs Maybe baby You'd better check between the lines Please read the letter, I Wrote it in my sleep With help and consultation from The angels of the deep Once I stood beside a well of many words My house was full of rings and Charms and pretty birds Please understand me, my Walls come falling down There's nothing here that's left for you But check with lost and found Please read the letter that I wrote Please read the letter that I wrote One more song just before we go Remember baby All the things We used to know Please read my letter And promise you'll keep The secrets and the memories and Cherish in the deep Ah... Please read the letter that I wrote Please read the letter that I wrote Please read the letter that I wrote Please read the letter that I wrote Please read the letter that I wrote Please read the letter that I wrote
