The Love Letter |
When you look real close you can see real good |
You can see the imperfections |
Now that we know the crooked and the straight |
We can love in real completion |
It’s a danger to love for tomorrow |
It’s a danger to love for the better |
But if it’s not there, it’s just not there |
With the things that really matter |
Taking it just the way that it is |
I’m taking it at face value |
Things can look better in the distance |
But that not the way I want to love you |
I want to love you that close |
I want to love you that close |
I want to love you that close |
I’m taking it just the way that it is |
Opinion’s will fly back and forth |
And to disagree can be treason |
But you have loved my stronger side |
And I have loved the reasons |
Takin' it just the way that it is |
I’m takin' it at face value |
Things can look better in the distance |
But that’s not the way I want to love you |
I’ve been drinking my coffee from a china cup |
I’ve been feeling holy and better |
In a borrowed apartment in Boston |
I sat down and wrote you this love letter |
