Lyrics
The Letter
Words and Music
By
Al Venturini
Standing here with this letter in my hand
Trying so damn hard to understand
You say that your not comin' back
You won't be coming home
How am I suppose to know what I did wrong
You say you couldn't stand here face to face
So you leave this letter and vanish without a trace
How am I going to face the day
You won't be coming home
How am I supposed to know what I did wrong
1st Chorus
How can it be after all this time
you're leaving me without a sign
2nd Chorus
How does it play that you walk away
Into another day without a word to say
Standing here just staring at the dawn
I'm still tryin' to figure what went wrong
I hope time will heal this pain
You won't be coming home
How am I supposed to know what I did wrong
