A CUT FROM THE 1ST RECORDING FROM THE ALBUM "PERIQUE" BY JOHNNY PACIA & THE D TRAIN RIDERS
lyrics
Letter For The Fire
I don’t know why
You couldn’t hold on to me
You know that I
Ain’t that hard to please
And I did all I could do
To keep hiding you
From your misery
But you said that I’m free
To follow my dreams
I know just what that means
You no longer want me
So I’ve got my life to lead
But it’s never seemed
So lonely
I don’t know what I
Would do if I saw your face
I don’t know if I’d
Run to you or run away
I relive the memory
Of your arms holding me
Everyday
And at night when I sleep
You come back to me
It’s so real and so sweet
But it’s only a dream
And when I fall out of bed
I wake up alone
Trembling
But that’s when I don’t regret anything
Baby, I loved you
You know I loved you.
