Seven Little Letters

Well, I know I should be going to the one who waits for me
Another day is over and she loves me I can see
Maybe it's tomorrow, or a thousand years ago
you got your arms around me and I'm not strong enough for no

I can hear her heart is breaking as you lead me to the door
Suddenly, I'm in a place I ain't never been before
Maybe it's the longing that's got me by your side
Tonight I found a feeling I thought long ago had died

Pillows tell the story of tangled sheets upon the bed
The love that we are making explodes inside my head
Right or wrong it's over we got no place left to go
How am I gonna tell her what she should never know

Before too long you'll call me when you're tired of being alone
I know that you'll be waiting in our home away from home
I never meant to hurt her she's been so good to me
but, the love that you can give me makes me wild and free

Somewhere a heart is breaking with the slamming of a door
I can see her teardrops falling as she says to me "No more!"
Another silent night surrounds me and I'm alone as I can be
She didn't wanna hear my story she just turned away from me

Now here I am without her learning how to cry
Seven little letters how she told me goodbye
Nothing much about 'em, but, they sure brought me to my knees
Seven little letters that made a fool of me
