Dar Williams - If I Wrote You текст песни

Words and music by dar williams

I never thought you were the letter writing type

So now I see the words you chose the way you write

So I started to write back about the trees in the snow

And I saw a bird, couldnt see what it was but I thought youd know

You always surprised me

Chorus:

And if I wrote you

If I wrote you

You wouldknow me

And you would not write me again

Verse:

And when the spring came and flooded all the streams

Its like how you got the night you told me all you dreams

And when the barn roof sagged after an icy bout

Its like how you got when you knew the truth was the only way out

But not the only way

Chorus:

And if I wrote you

If I wrote you

You wouldknow me

And you would not write me again

Verse:

We drew our arms around the bastard sons

We never would drink to the chosen ones

Well you know the way I left was not the way I planned

But I thought the world needed love and a steady hand

So Im steady now

Chorus:

And Im so happy

I had to tell you

And I love you

And you will not write me again

You will not write me again

You will not write me again
