Living In Your Letters Lyrics

    I'm always assuming the worst,
    but you're going on none the less
    & there's nothing to cusion your heart led fall.
    Letters from further away
    keep pulling me close to home.
    And there's something to cushion my callous sighs.
    And I know that you hope for
    longer good-byes
    embracing for forever
    and falling in your eyes.

    Pouring over photographs.
    I'm living in your letters.
    Breathe deeply from this envelope
    it smells like you & I can't be
    without that scent. It's filling me
    with all you mean to me.

    Continually failing these trials
    but you stand by me nonetheless
    & you won't let me sink
    though I'm beggin you.
    Phone calls from further away
    & messages on my machine,
    but I don't ever tell you this distance
    seems terrible.
    There is no need to test my heart,
    with useless space.
    These roads go on forever
    & so do you and I.

    So I'll hit the pavement
    it's gotta be better than waiting
    & pushing you far away
    cause I'm scared.
    So I'll take my chances
    & head on my way up there.
    Cause turning to you is like falling in love when you're ten.
