lyrics

I’ve been the letter that’s left unopened
I’d have done better if I'd left you alone
And now all I know is the ink stains my heart
The longer I leave it the darker it grows.
The ink stains my heart;
Till you read it, it just won’t go.

Once you whispered in my ear sweet nothings.
Now you've got nothing left to say.

I’ve been the letter hidden in the drawer
Shouldn’t really matter but I think I've been here before.
And now all I know is the ink stains my heart
The longer I leave it the darker it grows.
The ink stains my heart;
Till you read it, it just won’t go.

Once you whispered in my ear sweet nothings.
Now you've got nothing left to say.
