"The Letter" Lyrics

I remember me tugging your shirt
While your pulling away
Your eyes were so cold but I could tell
You were begging to stay

I can still feel your button up shirt
Holding all my tears
And even when you were telling me to let go
I could feel you lingering on and on

I'll write you a letter
I'll put it away
Maybe December's when I'll send it your way
Maybe by next year
Things would have changed
Cause I'll be better
And you'll be better for me

Now that your gone and I'm growing I can finally see that
You were the ocean and no matter how hard I swam
I'd never make it past your wave

I can still feel your salty lips kiss away my fears
I can still feel your ocean breeze whispers in my ear

I'll write you a letter
I'll put it away

Maybe December's when I'll send it your way
Maybe by next year
Things would have changed
Cause I'll be better
And you'll be better for me

I'll ride my bicycle to our grocery store
Our song comes on when I walk through the door

I'll order chai latte at our old café
When Tthey ask where you are I dont know what to say

I'll write you a letter
put it away
Maybe December's when I'll send it your way
Maybe by next year
Things would have changed
Cause I'll be better
oh I'll be better
oh'ill be better

I'll write you a letter
I'll put it away
Maybe December's when I'll send it your way
Maybe by next year
you would have changed
Cause I'll be better
And you'll be better
