Leave Letters
words and music by Liza Swart

Well you don't write songs for me baby
You don't write songs for me
And I don't want "no," I don't want "maybe"
Not when I know how it oughtta be
But we've tried and tried and tried tonight

Well you don't leave me little letters
You don't leave letters for me
Maybe it's time for something better
Time to change this present company
When we've tried and tried and tried all night

It's not giving up, it's not giving in
We both know now we can never win
It's not giving up, it's not giving in
It's just the end
We can begin

Well I don't whisper sweet nothings
I don't whisper them to you
And I for one am tired of all the running
Tired of running from the truth
When we've tried and tried and tried tonight

It's not giving up, it's not giving in
We both know now we can never win
It's not giving up, it's not giving in
It's just the end
We can begin

It's just the end
We can begin

It's just the end
We can begin

Nice Liza. I like the shazam! Now can you make Britney Spears disappear?

Please?

I like the new one by the way... I'll have more to say soon.

I love the double vocal at the end. (And quite appropriate, since it's "just the end" at that point in the song).

This is a sad lyric. The death of a relationship. The end of love.

We can begin to pick up the pieces?
We can begin to move on?

Sad, sad, sad.

:)

Thanks for sharing.

Unless of course this is one of those double meaning love songs that's got hidden coded messages or something like that...
