A Letter To Elise

In the style of

The Cure

Lyrics

oh elise
it doesn't matter
what you say

i just can't stay here
every yesterday
like keep on
acting out the same
the way we act out

every way to smile
forget and
make-believe
we never needed
any more than this
any more than this

oh elise
it doesn't matter
what you do

i know
i'll never really
get inside of you
to make your eyes
catch fire
the way they should

the way the blue
could pull me in
if they only would
if they only would

at least
i'd lose this sense
of sensin'
something else
that hides away

from me and you
there are
worlds to part
with aching looks and
breaking hearts and

all the prayers
your hands can make
oh i just take as much
as you can throw

and then
throw it all away
oh i'll
throw it all away

like throwing faces
at the sky
like throwing arms
'round yesterday
i stood and stared
wide-eyed
in front of you

and the face i saw
looked back
the way i wanted to
but i just can't
hold my tears away
the way you do

elise
believe i never
wanted this
thought this time
i'd keep
all of my promises

i thought
you were the girl
i always
dreamed about

but i let the dream go
and the
promises broke
the make-believe
ran out

so elise
it doesn't matter
what you say

i just can't stay here
every yesterday
like keep on
acting out the same
the way we act out

every way to smile
forget and
make-believe
we never needed
any more than this
any more than this

and every time i try
to pick it up
like falling sand
as fast as i pick it up
it runs away
through my
clutching hands

but there's
nothing else
i can really do
there's nothing else
i can really do
there's nothing else
i can really do at all
