Peter Lyrics by Window Business

6 Apart

2021

[Chorus]
It didn't say to whom it was intended
No name was signed at the end
And your reader won't disclose here
What you named your daughter
But you never should have let that Peter in
No, you never should have let that Peter in
[Verse 1]
What is this I've found it's a letter on the ground
From a young mother struggling with meth
It might be for a counselor, it might be for a judge
Or some singer to come out and plead the fifth
It's folded into squares, it's honest and it's fair
The feelings there are noble and they're deep
Your life's big mistake for your poor daughter's sake
Was to open your shelter to that creep
[Chorus]
It didn't say to whom it was intended
No name was signed at the end
And your reader won't disclose here
What you named your daughter
But you never should have let that Peter in
No, you never should have let that Peter in
[Verse 2]
Peter might be dad, I don't know, it didn't say
And Peter might be kind there are no hints
But you let him in your bed and you let him there to stay
And the secret has been your ruin since
There's nothing here on Earth nor heavenly you say
That heals you like your child's glowing laugh
And many's been the day since they took your girl away
That your choices have been suicide and meth
[Chorus]
It didn't say to whom it was intended
No name was signed at the end
And your reader won't disclose here
What you named your daughter
But you never should have let that Peter in
No, you never should have let that Peter in
[Verse 3]
Obvious none of this is any of my business
But clearly this was not the last draft
I pray you don't feel so honest as a witness
When it comes time to speak on your behalf
But in that spirit of honesty you remind me of a lover
When I could not yet be called a man
She ran deep, liked meth, and also had a daughter
And she never should have let that singer in
No, she never should have let that singer in
[Chorus]
It didn't say to whom it was intended
No name was signed at the end
And your reader won't disclose here
What you named your daughter
But you never should have let that Peter in
[Refrain]
No, you never should have let that Peter in
No, you never should have let that Peter in
