Love Letters Lyrics

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
