Intro:
VERSE 1
This 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.
PRECHORUS:
This year s been a hard one.
Yeah, I ve made so many big mistakes.
I lost the heart that I d been given.
CHORUS:
So, when it s love don t wait to say what it is.
mmm.
When it s love don t wait to say what it is.
VERSE 2:
After the fire is when the neighbor s 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.
PRECHORUS
In the vacant silence of a lost Manhattan boulevard
you ll hear the answers if you listen.
CHORUS
When it s love don t wait to say what it is.
mmm
When it s love don t wait to say what it is.
mmmm
PRECHORUS
I see couples kissing with their arms and fingers locked so tight
I hope they say the words we didn t.
CHORUS
When it s love don t wait to say what it is.
mmmm
And don t trade love for an aimless embrace of the wind.
mmmm
Please don t lose your love the way that I did.
VERSE
This is a letter from my lonelier self
to the one that s in love once again.
