I stare at a blank screen
With words swirling before my eyes
And yet I can't think of what to say
They brush my lips
But won't come out my fingertips
And it's times like these
I find it easiest to just let go...

And I put my heart
In a little white envelope
And sent it to you today
Can't say when you'll get it
Or what you'll say

Envelopes sealed with a lipstick print
But I only see red when I close my eyes
See my feelings for you are so confused
And I know I'll always love you
But I'll always want to hate you
And it's times like these
I decide staying silent is best...

And I put my heart
In a little white envelope
And sent it to you today
Can't say when you'll get it
Or what you'll say

Being far away is breaking my heart
But being near you is breaking me apart
I'm finally realizing what's best for me
And I'm sorry honey
But it's not you...

And I put what's left of my heart
In a little white envelope
And locked it away
Can't say what I'll do with it
But I do know what I'll say

It's not you honey, I'm sorry, It's not you.
I'm happy with this
