The Letter Lyrics

I sit by my window
With everything I've done
Doors that I've opened
And webs that I've spunAnd the candle beside me
Burns to the left
And the rain on the clay
Sends a lizard to its nestAnd there'll be a time
When I will hold you again
With my arms spread out
On my chest, you will restI'll write you a letter
With everything I know
About the weight of the world
And the way things could goSo give up, my friend
Step back again
For some things will be given
For some you'll have to bendYou'll have to bend, my friend
To hold on to this
For some things will come easy

And some will be a test
You'll have to bendNow the ocean connects me
To everything I know
By mellowing my mind
So my heart, it can callWith these trees as my witness
I'll slice up some fruit
And each to their peaceful
Good intentions and truthThere will be a time
When I will hold you again
With my arms spread out
I will dive right inSo now here is your letter
With everything I know
About the weight of the world
And the way things could goSo give up, my friend
Step back again
For some things will be given
For some you'll have to bendYou'll have to bend, my friend
To hold on to this
For some things will come easy
And some will be a test
You'll have to bendNow the ocean connects me
To everything I know
By mellowing my mind
So my heart, it can callWith these trees as my witness
I'll slice up some fruit
And each to their peaceful
Good intentions and truthThere will be a time
When I will hold you again
With my arms spread out
I will dive right inSo now here is your letter
With everything I know
About the weight of the world
And the way things could go
