"The Letter" Lyrics

She left an envelope at my door
I've been down dear John road before so
I'm not looking forward to knowing
Its officially over

I know just where this is headed
And there's no way I'm gonna read this letter
What's so important to say
That you can't say it to my face
Hurt me face to face

It aint my birthday this aint no card
These are the words that'll break my heart in two
And they were written by
The only love that I thought I knew and
I - I don't wanna spend the night cryin
So I'll just spare myself from readin'
The content of this document you sent

I know just where this is headed
And there's no way I'm gonna read this letter
What's so important to say
That you can't say it to my face
Hurt me face to face

When its over
(You got to say it, you got to say it)
Say it to my face babe
(You got to say it, you got to say it)
(You got to say it, you got to say it)
Say it to my face babe
(You got to say it, you got to say it)

I know just where this is headed
And there's no way I'm gonna read this letter
What's so important to say
That you can't say it to my face
I know just where this is headed
And there's no way I'm gonna read this...

Letter

"Well let's see what it says. All she wrote was...Goodbye"
