LETTER FROM MY LONELIER SELF
Words & Music by Amber Rubarth (c) 2010 Inspiraled Music (ASCAP)

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.

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.
