"Letter" lyrics

Can't let it happen again
Build my hopes up for when
I don't need to search high and low for a friend
Who doesn't pretend oh
I wish somebody held me close and said

I won't let you down
Now that I'm around
It's ok to cry tell me anything you like
Cause I would not allow
Anyone to hurt you
I wish I could say babe that everyone's the same

Maybe it's time to write that letter
I've been meaning to send you
Been waiting so long to say
And I'll feel better when I tell you the reason I had to walk away
Have you been waiting all this time

And I will always regret how I tried to forget
I'm afraid it's more than I gained since I left
Cause nobody can replace you
And no-one should have to

I cannot explain why we're so afraid
People are just people falling under the weight
Of what we do not say and it happens everyday
If people really change then maybe I could've stayed

Maybe it's time to write that letter
I've been meaning to send you
Been waiting so long to say
And I'll feel better when I tell you the reason I had to walk away
Have you been waiting for these

Walls to break down and
I never knew how
They're crumbling down
And I can't keep anyone out

Maybe it's time to write that letter
I've been meaning to send you
Been waiting so long to say
And I'll feel better when I tell you the reason I had to walk away

I'll write that letter
I'll write that letter
I'll write that letter

I'll write that letter
I'll write that letter
I'll write that letter
