The Thought Of You

I wrote a letter to you today
You’ll never get it ‘cause I threw it away
I asked forgiveness for trying to make you stay
But I knew you didn’t want to go
But it was still wrong this I know

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen your face
I kind of hope that we never get to that place
I like to think that we are running our own race
In some kind of parallel divide
The kind that real life can’t provide
But I will always think you lied

And this is how I think of you
When I’m alone in a stranger’s room
In a southern town we once drove through
So many yеars ago
So I just thought I wouldn’t let you know

I wrote a lettеr there was so much to say
I wrote in circles until the words became a game to play
I guess I knew that it would never reach you anyway
Because my love never was for you
But just for something that I thought you knew
About how winners sometimes lose
And losers never really have to choose

That was never quite so clear
As when you’d come and then just disappear
You are still my biggest fear
And I have got a few
But nothing scares me like you do
No nothing scares me like the thought of you
