Pretty little pictures
|
On a small black card
|
Stamped it in my city
|
'Fore I sent it off to your house
|
I'm hoping that it finds you
|
As it's traveling east
|
I pray it finds your doorstep
|
Oh, that it's still in one piece
|
|
(Mmm) I know I didn't write much
|
I hope that's alright
|
I promised I'd try- I tried all night
|
I hope you've been well
|
I've been doing all right
|
Trying to find the rhythm through the blues tonight
|
Oh... well I wish that it were
|
But it won't be
|
|
'Cuz this needs more than a postcard, baby
|
So much more than a postcard, baby
|
I've been tryin' to write- it's just too heavy
|
I've been tryin' to bribe my heart- it won't let me
|
And it would take more than what I feel in the autumn, love
|
It would say more than any song that I've ever wrote
|
But I can't go... so the postcard goes
|
Ohhh
|
|
Pretty little lady
|
Oh it's been a long, long time
|
I wish I'd known the future
|
And I wish that I could turn back time
|
Everybody's wondering
|
They've been asking about you
|
I say you're doing okay
|
But I wish that I knew...
|
|
I know I didn't write much
|
Still hoping you'd write
|
And anything's fine-
|
Even just one line.
|
I hope you've been well
|
I've been doing all right
|
Trying to find the rhythm thru the blues tonight
|
Oh.. how I wish that it were
|
But it won't be
|
|
Cuz this needs more than a postcard, baby
|
So much more than a postcard, baby
|
I've been tryin' to write but it's just too heavy
|
I've been tryin' to bribe my heart- it won't let me
|
And it would take more than what I feel in the summer, love
|
It would say more than any song that I ever wrote
|
But I can't go... so the postcard goes
|
|
How I wish I could tell you
|
What you and I both need to hear
|
But how will that work if-
|
If we both need differently
|
I hope that you're happy
|
There between the sun and the sand
|
And if you forget me...
|
Well, I'll understand
|
|
Cuz this needed more than a postcard, baby
|
So much more than a postcard, baby
|
I've been tryin' to write- it's just too heavy
|
I've been tryin' to bribe my heart- it won't let me
|
And it would take more than what I feel in the summer, love
|
It would say more than any song that we've ever wrote
|
But I can't go... so the postcard goes
|
Ohhhhh
