When we fell in love
Couldn't make it up
Hoped it would last
I put ya first
The second I said the words it hurt
When we started out
Heads up in the clouds
Too good to be true
Too bad that you said
You'd write when I left, left, left

So far
Too far...

Writing me letters every day
Spilling your heart out on the page
And you sign with love
It's not enough...
Reading your letters makes it worse
I'm hanging on to every word
When you open up
The paper cuts

When we traced the line
From your place to mine
On the map it's an inch
Just push a pin
In the thick of it all, the love runs thin
We were so in love
Took on more than we can take
Did I make a mistake?

Writing me letters every day
Spilling your heart out on the page
And you sign with love
It's not enough...
Reading your letters makes it worse
I'm hanging on to every word
When you open up
The paper cuts

You know exactly what to say
Teardrops are raining on the page, yeah
But it's not enough

Writing me letters every day
Spilling your heart out on the page
And you sign with love
It's not enough...
Reading your letters makes it worse
I'm hanging on to every word
When you open up
The paper cuts

(The paper cuts...)
