I guess I let her down
And folks will be disappointed in me
They won't read my poems anymore after today

Some things are not easy for me to say
It takes a long time for me to look before I can see
And there's something that's not ok

It seems that all these letters
Were some kind of rehearsal behind a curtain
It's not right to speak of love unless love shows up in person

I guess I let her down and I don't knows what's in store
Seems I've always been standing in puddles on the ground
Made a lot of tracks trying to ring the right bell but at the wrong door

Sorry to disappoint as I've reached the end of the line
But no more rhymes of missing and hurtin'
It's not right to speak of love unless love shows up in person
