Postcard From Seattle Lyrics

I sent you a postcard from Seattle

I think it got lost in the mail

'Cause I never got one back

Not even a dirty picture of the San Diego shore

And you're probably passed out with your Betas

Shaking new hands of the girls

Who don't even know about me

But I told every boy in school

"There's one at home who's waiting for me"

I blame it on the West Coast postal system

I blame it on anything I can

The difference in time

You cutting your lines

While I'm writing mine

The truth is you, you and I

You and I just aren't the same anymore

Like we were before

We packed our bags and said "Promise to keep in touch"

And you, you and I

May never get out of each other's minds

But I hope with time

Living without you won't hurt so much

The rain here is pouring almost daily

I've got a few friends but not a lot

And you're probably at the beach

With some blonde girl who catches a tan, unlike me

I blame it on the education system

I blame it on the world itself

Cause if the universe was gonna make me hurt

Could it at least let me have you first

'Cause you, you and I

You and I just aren't the same anymore

Like we were before

We packed our bags and said "Promise to keep in touch"

And you, you and I

May never get out of each other's minds

But I hope with time

Living without you won't hurt so much

Hurt so much

I sent you a postcard from Seattle

I think it got lost in the mail

Cause I never got one back

Not even a dirty picture of the San Diego shore
