Living In Your Letters
I'm always assuming the worst.
But you're going on none the less.
And there's nothing to cushion your heart-led fall.
Letters from further away keep pulling me close to home.
And they're something to cushion my calisize.
And I know that you hope for longer goodbyes.
Embracing fall for forever and falling in your eyes.
In your eyes. Your eyes. Pouring over photographs.
I'm living in your letters.
And breathe deeply from this envelope.
It smells like you and I can't be without that scent.
Its filling me with all you mean to me, to me.
Continually failing these trials
But you can stand by me none the less.
And you won't let me sink through I'm begging you, I'm begging you.
Phone calls from further away and messages on my machine.
But I don't ever tell you this distance seems terrible.
There's no need to test my heart with useless space.
These roads go on forever and so do you and I.
There will always be a place for you in my heart.
So I'll hit the pavement. It's gotta be better than waiting.
And pushing you far away cause I'm scared.
So I'll take my chances and head on my way up there.
Cause turning to you is like falling in love when you're ten.
