As I wrote I began to lie
But I caught
I caught the line

Meaningless words
But foreign marks
Told it all
Postmarked my heart

It’s about time I told you exactly how I feel
It’s about time I told you
It’s about time I told you exactly how I feel
It’s about time I told you

But I’ve never felt so safe
But I’ve never felt so safe
But I’ve never felt so safe
But I’ve never felt so safe
It’s about time I told you
But I’ve never felt so safe before
The angels that abandoned me must be back
But why do I deserve this reward
When I’ve done so few of
All the things I said I would
I thought I couldn’t but now I realize
That now is the only time I should
When I looked in your eyes
I wasn’t scared
They didn’t lie

As I wrote this, I was thinking of you
Postcard communication gave my heart away
I sent it to you
Destination: love, postmarked L.U.V
Postcard communication sent my heart away
To you from me

As I looked in your eyes
I wasn’t scared
They didn’t lie

This is not a game
No pocketful of posies, ashes in my past
And in my head there’s voices telling me to stop
But I can’t, it’s too late
(I’ve been this way before)
I know, and I’ve got to go
(Ashes in my past)
And in my head there’s voices
(Telling me to stop)
But sometimes you have no choices
When in walks your new love
So tired of falling out
But this time I can’t help falling in
I’ve been hurt before
I don’t want to be hurt like that again
But I guess it was too late when I picked up the pen
I want to go
I want to find
That perfect place
Before our time
Where we can lie
And no one sees
And no one asks
And never leave

There we’ll lay on our backs
Looking up stars overhead
And there I’ll tell you that I’ll behave
I’ll be an angel, the best I can

I swear I’ll be an angel
I swear I’ll be an angel
I swear
I swear
I swear
I swear
I swear
I swear
I swear
I swear

And there is nothing I regret if it got me to this point
And there is nothing I would change
And there is nothing to retort
And there is nothing I can’t tell you
I’m looking in your eyes and
There is nothing I can say to tell you
But now I’ve gotten here
I don’t know how to play
I don’t know what to tell you
I don’t know how to say
Let me tell you a secret
I’ll whisper to your ear
Come closer
Even further
Closer so you’ll hear

I don’t know how to say what I mean
“I love you” sounds so cheap, so clichéd
I thought the words would come so easily
Like how I feel
Like how I fell
I don’t know how to say what I mean
“I love you” sounds so cheap, so clichéd

I can’t find the words
I can’t find the words
I can’t find the words
I can’t find the words
When I told you everything
You told everything to me

It’s about time I told you exactly how I feel
It’s about time I told you
It’s about time I told you exactly how I feel
It’s about time I told you
