The Letter Lyrics by Midnight Youth

The Brave Don’t Run

2009

[Verse 1]
Yesterday, I got a letter
From an old friend of mine, oh, oh
It had some words and a picture
You had changed your life
You said that
[Pre-Chorus]
If you're the same boy I knew of
When those days slipped slowly by
Well, we should meet up and see if
If we could be all alright this time
[Verse 2]
So we talked of our stories
'Til the sun and the waves, well, they turned in
Well, we made plans for the next year
You were on my mind
All of the time
[Pre-Chorus]
Because if you're the same girl I knew of
When those days slipped slowly by
Well, we should meet up and see if
If we could be all alright this time
[Chorus]
Do you think that I will change your world if I go
Join you on the shore with stories untold
Do you think that we could do this
Living, breathing under the sun
Not on my mind all of the time
[Instrumental Break]
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, if we're the same kids we knew of
When those days slipped slowly by
Well, yeah, we should meet up and see if
We could be all alright this time
[Chorus]
Do you think that I will change your world if I go
Join you on the shore with stories untold
Do you think that we could do this
Living, breathing under the sun
Did you think that you were homeward bound
'Cause I am leaving on the next plane out
And all these stars, are they aligning now
[Outro]
Do you think that I will change your world if I go
Join you on the shores with stories untold
Yeah, we could do this, oh
