lyrics

I was going to write you a letter
It would have just made you sad
The horse I rode in on died
And stopped me where I stand
It will stay with you from Medor to Maine
What can I do about it now?

I'm sorry but I didn't know it would go this fast
I'm sorry but I didn't know it would go this fast

Let’s assume the opening was strong
The middle had the finer points
I said all the things I should have said
It smelled how you remember
That my heart was in it
and exactly what need when you read it

I was going to write my intentions
But acceptance wasn't there
The place I'm in doesn't have any pens
Even so what could I write to make amends
My mind was riddled with fear and doubt
All I know now is to be without
I didn’t receive your letter
It still needs to be said.
The place you're in doesn’t start again
Whatever we planned is a dead end.
My heart will live forever in doubt
Stuck with what only I figure out
The words you would have said I needed to hear.
The smell of your letter could help me remember.
