Dear...

Dear old lover I hope you're fine when you're found by my letter I'll skip past niceties Discussing the weather And get straight to it My old friend Your betrayal like the smell of cigarettes It lingers round just like your regrets But we'll get through it And I'd bet my life That you've been searchin' round town Wishin' I was still around And if you tell me I'm right Would you tell me come home? Cause lately I've been A vagabond Traveling places you ain't ever heard of Lately I've been Freer than the red, white, and blue Learnin' a new kind of love I grew up hearing you should never give up Perseverance was taint of my luck Me and my tight grip My lost treasure Hope you're okay after the peak of your pleasure Your reaching out reeks of a desperate measure Does she hear you call my name at night? And I'd bet my life That you've been searchin' round town Wishin' I was still around And if you tell me I'm right I still wouldn't come home Cause lately I've been A bonfire Center of all the conversation Lately I've been Painting rainbows over all the blue bruises Lately I've been Freer than the girl that you knew Learnin' a new kind of love A love of oneself A love that lives without you I'm here in my room But my mind let's me escape to where I want to You turned me into sand between your fingers And you'll forever be the trigger for me La la la la la la La la la la Oh, and I'd bet my life Yeah, I'd bet my life Yeah, I'd bet my life Cause lately I've been Shiveree Hips and beat I keep grooving Lately I've been Sunkissed Well-missed Only catching green lights Lately I've been A pioneer finding my feet I ran away, far from your street And I learned what it means to be free
