Lyrics
The Letter ©2023 Creative InRoads, LLC
I had to write this letter / some things I had to explain
For you / for me / for the sake of everybody's sanity
How long has it been now / four years / maybe more
And, I'm still the wanderer / oh, the hopeless wanderer
And, you / you're still dreaming
Dreaming about all the beautiful things you could do
Damn, it's been good / more than it should
You and I will never change
I hoped you'd know me better / I prayed there'd be no pain
For you / for me / for the sake of everybody's sanity
How long can we hold out to the pressures we have made
This constant test of harmony has cost the better part of me
And, you / you're still dreaming
Dreaming about all the beautiful things you could do
Damn, it's been good / more than it should
You and I will never change
After months on months of heated talks
Our convictions are still deeply locked
We have gotten no further than before
And, our resolve is quickly put aside
By a mixture of our rights and pride
Ending by a threat to walk right out the door
I had to write this letter / some things I had to explain
For you / for me / for the sake of everybody's sanity
How long has it been now / four years / maybe more
And, I'm still the wanderer / oh, the hopeless wanderer
And, you / you're still dreaming
Dreaming about all the beautiful things you could do
Damn, it's been good / more than it should
You and I will never change
Damn, it's been good / more than it should
You and I / we will never change
