The Letter

I have got this letter that I’m trying to write to you
I start at “Hello” and end up somewhere near “I love you”
So I haven’t found a way to get it out to you
I’m scared of what you’ll say

I stopped trying to call, stopped trying to get back in your life
You don’t care at all, I’m not your mother or your wife
So you know you’re free
To go and be whatever you need to be

And I’m trying to get my life back on the road
Trying to bring myself to finally let you go
So I can get beyond this hurt I’ve come to know
Yeah, I want to
I keep trying to but I

I can’t get past you
You’re everywhere
In my memory
And my every prayer
I close my eyes
But you’re clearer there
And I wonder
If I’m under
Some kind of spell, babe?

Every single morning I wake up just the same way
Thinking you might call and say you thought of me today
You know I think of you
But I’m gonna be cool, baby, like you want me to

But it’s hard to walk away when you believe that love is real
How did you forget the way we made each other feel?
Baby, are you sure
That you don’t need me anymore?

Oh, I want to give you all the space that you need
Space to find yourself alone with a place for me
Cause I can’t just turn you into history

But I want to
I keep trying to but I

I can’t get past you
You’re everywhere
In my memory
And my every prayer
I close my eyes
But you’re clearer there
And I wonder
If I’m under
Some kind of spell, babe?
