Em G D G
This is a letter from my lonelier self
Em G D Em
to the one that's in love once again.

I couldn't find you so I thought that I would
G Em G D
tell you a few things with my favorite blue pen.
PRECHORUS:
C G
This year's been a hard one.
D Em C
Yeah, I've made so many big mistakes.

I lost the heart that I'd been given.
CHORUS:
C Cm G
So, when it's love don't wait to say what it is.
B E A
mmm.
C Cm G
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.
