Love Letters

Did you notice the ribbons in my hair Or my eyes, how they glitter though I'm barely there 'Cause I do, why won't you Did you know if you picked me a bouquet I'd keep it 'til it rots away You threw yours out before it bloomed I know you sent My love letters out to sea again Saw the ink smudge and get washed away Are my words more beautiful that way Haunted by our way home We followed the sky, found the North Star Could have sworn I glistened like art Salt water danced down my cheek But you never noticed me Did you read my love letters I shouldn't ask, should know better Than to love you so Am I foolish for thinking I could find A home in a world of you and I I'm through with artful illusions So bottle up my letters Smash the glass to sand I'll be cut by the shards Next to where you stand I'll glue my heart back just for you But I know you sent My love letters out to sea again Saw the ink smudge and get washed away Are my words more beautiful that way Haunted by our way home We followed the sky, found the North Star Could have sworn I glistened like art Salt water danced down my cheek But you never noticed me So send my love to the mermaids Their songs carry my heart through somber times Go let my love be taken by the ocean So I can watch it drift far far away Like how you sent My love letters out to sea again Saw the ink smudge and get washed away Are my words more beautiful that way Haunted by our way home We followed the sky, found the North Star Could have sworn I glistened like art Salt water danced down my cheek But you never noticed me Did you read my love letters (did you read them) I shouldn't ask, should know better (should know better) 'Cause you let me go (You let me go) (You let me go) You let me go Coulda read my love letters
