Letter from My Lonelier Self - Amber Rubarth

Here is a letter from my lonelier self

To the one that’s in love once again

I couldn’t find you so I thought that I would tell

You a few things with my favorite blue pen

This year’s been a hard one

Yeah I made so many big mistakes

I lost the heart that I’d been given

So when it’s love don’t wait to say what it is

When it’s love don’t wait to say what it is

After the fire is when the neighbors all come out

Their sadness dripping with relief it wasn’t them

And all your thoughts turn solid cause you’ve lost everything else

And you need a place to lay your head

And in the vacant silence of a lost Manhattan Boulevard

You’ll hear the answers if you listen

When it’s Love don’t wait to say what it is

When it’s Love don’t wait to say what it is

And I see couples kissing with their arms and fingers locked so tight

I hope they say the words we didn’t

When it’s Love don’t wait to say what it is

And don’t trade Love for an aimless embrace of the wind

Please don’t lose your Love the way that I did

Here is a letter from my lonelier self

To the one that’s in Love once again
