Letters From The Wasteland (Album Version)

Letters From The Wasteland (Album Version) - The Wallflowers

Written by：Jakob Dylan

Now coming down

Out of this swandive to your arms

I make no sounds

When I move thru your reservoirs

I wake up quick

I wake up sick

As you abandon me

Into these fields of rank and file

Thru this cloud I hear you breathing

Thru these bars I watch them bring more in

Now I send back letters from the wasteland home

Last slowdance to this romance on my own

May take two to tango but boy

It takes one to let go

It just takes one to let go

Now boy keep still

Don't spread yourself around

Get back in line

Eat your bread

And just work the ground

'Cause you're not through

They're not done with you

Did you think you were

The only one who's been let down

So sleep tight little boys of the new dam

Let them drop in the tought with quicksand

Now I send back letters from the wasteland home

Last slowdance to this romance on my own

May take two to tango but boy

It takes one to let go

Now another bad idea gets thru

Down they send me unto you

Every bridge I should have burned

Every lesson I've unlearned

When the smoke give way to ruins

Incarcerated lovesick fools

I wait for you to cut me loose

But until then

I send back letters

From the wasteland home

Last slowdance to this romance on my own

Now I send back letters

From the wasteland home

From where I slowdance

To this romance on my own
