Letter and a Picture

Counting time I can walk around this world
Counting lines I can write about one girl
Counting fears that I couldn’t help but keep
Counting sheep as I try to fall asleep

A letter and a picture are all I ask
A prayer and a phone call in return
It’s only getting harder to find the time
I think I’m giving up on you

Far too much I’m afraid to open up
Far too long I have kept it all inside
Far too deep cutting when you criticize
Far away never could I find your hand

A letter and a picture are all I ask
A prayer and a phone call in return
It’s only getting harder to find the time
To think I’d given up on you

Losing sight of the dream I had last night
Picking fights with the lines that I could write
