I wrote you a letter but I threw it away I knew I would, I would if I waited a day It made me feel better, what I had to say I knew it would, it did but I waited I hardly bothered, though I labored all day I work so hard, there's no time left to please you The day I decided I had nothing to say, I'll never learn I'm burning all this paper away A rhythm in your walking tree It's a tapestry of pride you're weaving Over, under, ropes of wonder, tie me to a chair I'm dirty feet on your clean white shoes I'm the man of the mess that greets you Been graced with a slap in the face, tangled in your hair I think it's time you let me go I'm too in love, let me go I think it's time you let me go I'm too in love I think it's time you let me go I'm too in love, let me go A rhythm and you're walking true It's a tapestry of pride you're weaving Over, under, ropes of wonder, tie me to a chair I'm dirty feet on your clean white shoes I'm the man of the mess that greets you Been graced with a slap in the face, tangled in your hair I wrote you a letter, but I threw it away I knew I would, I would, if I waited a day It made me feel better, but I have to say I'll never learn, I'm burning all this paper away I'm burning all this paper away I'm burning all this paper
