Down to the Letter Lyrics by Chris Petersen

Cowboy Coming Home

2019

[Verse 1]
I know how she likes her coffee
Rush hour, she hates to drive
I know her laugh in a crowded room
And how Steel Magnolias makes her cry
Rocky road's her favorite ice cream
She lives for October weather
I guess I thought I knew her
Right down to the letter
[Chorus]
How could I be so blind
That I couldn't read between the lines?
And now she's gone, I guess I never
Thought I'd see this story comin' down
To the letter
[Verse 2]
Every word that's in her note was
Already writtеn on the wall
But her dreams and things shе needed
They took a backseat to my own
That man I thought that I was
Don't look so good on paper
I can see I've been a dang fool
Right down to the letter
[Chorus]
How could I be so blind
That I couldn't read between the lines?
And now she's gone, I guess I never
Thought I'd see this story comin' down
Down to the letter
How could I be so blind
That I couldn't read between the lines?
And now she's gone, I guess I never
Thought I'd see this story comin' down
Never thought I'd see this story comin' down
To the letter
Down to the letter
