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
Mmh, 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 alright
Trying to find the rhythm through the blues tonight
Oh, well, I wish that it were
But it won't be
'Cause 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
Ohh

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 alright
Trying to find the rhythm through the blues tonight
Oh, how I wish that it were
But it won't be
'Cause 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 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
'Cause 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
And it would say more than any song that we've ever wrote
But I can't go, so the postcard goes
Ohh
