woke up on monday and wrote you a love song
well the pen stopped and the paper flew out the window
and the notes rang down the road
i don't know where they'll go get caught in the trees i suppose
ripped apart by the birds and the winter winds whisper good bye to your love
went out walking into the storm
followed what i thought was your voice but it was just the riverside
i don't know where they'll go but i cast the letters you wrote
taken out by the current or sink to the bottom to say a little goodbye to your love
skies dark and the wind blew the trees down
i watched as the world slipped away
carved into the bark a final love song
then i carried the words to the fire
staring into the glow where the branches are burning low
sparks shooting out like stars and in the morning say a little goodbye to your love
i'll carry this song with me everyday 'til i lie down by your side
