The Letter Is Proof
Folder:
The Present I’d rather be talking with you
Then sittin’ here alone in this room
Creation breeds a certain relief
These photo negatives are too obscene
So I put them back under the bed
To try and hide all the things we did
I hear you’re now in Baton Rogue
Two kids, a car
This letter is proof
You went too far
Did you think it through
I’ve read it through at least five times
But you hid nothing between the lines
Like the moment we first made love
The time you cried, my eyes fogged
With saline tears that fell on your chest
The open wound though burned is blessed
I hear you’re now in Baton Rogue
Two kids, a car
This letter is proof
That life’s too hard
Did you think it through
I flew to New York to try and clear my head
But the vows we made I still believe they’re there
So I’m coming down to Baton Rogue
This letter is love sealed for you
I hear you’re now in Baton Rogue
Our kids, our car
This letter is proof
That life’s was hard
When I walked out the door
And walked away from you
I hope you know I’m in Baton Rogue
With this letter of love still sealed for you
Cause life was hard
This letter is proof
