1
I never thought you were
2
The letter writing type
3
So now, I see the words you chose
4
And the way you write
5
So, I started to write back
6
About the trees in the snow
7
And I saw a bird, couldn't say what it was
8
But I thought you would know
9
You always surprised me
10
And if I wrote you, if I wrote you
11

12

14
And flooded all the streams
15

16
You told me all you dreams
17
And when the barn roof sagged after an icy bout
18
It's like how you shrugged when you knew
19
The truth was the only way out
20
But not the only way
21
And if I wrote you, if I wrote you
22

You know the way I left
29

30
But I thought the world needed love
31
And a steady hand
32
So, I'm steady now
33
And I'm so happy
34
I had to tell you and I love you
35
You will not write me again
36
You will not write me again
