Loving You on Paper
Loving You on Paper: A Heart's Unspoken Chronicles
Lyrics
I’ve got a book full of letters
I have a book filled with letters.
That I write to make me feel better
I write these letters as a coping mechanism for emotional well-being.
I keep you updated on my life
I keep you informed about my life through these letters.
And we are still planning to make me your wife
We still have plans to get married.
Loving You on Paper is so much safer
Expressing love through written words feels safer.
Cause I can erase or I can scratch out
I can edit, erase, or discard written emotions.
Or I can rip a page and throw it away
I have control over the expression of my feelings on paper.
I can pretend you never walked out
I can imagine a scenario where you never left.
Every night when I get in bed
Every night, I revisit the words you've written.
I read over the words you have said
I reflect on the expressions of love in those words.
And I take my pen and I recreate
I use my pen to recreate our shared experiences.
Every one of our loving mistakes
I acknowledge and learn from our past mistakes.
Loving You on Paper is so much safer
Expressing love on paper provides a sense of security.
Cause I can erase or I can scratch out
I have the power to modify or erase emotions on paper.
Or I can rip a page and throw it away
I can discard and move on from painful memories.
I can pretend you never walked out
I can create a reality where you never left me.
I know it ain’t right to live in the past
Living in the past is acknowledged as not right.
But since you left, my love it still lasts
Despite your departure, my love for you endures.
On our future you may have given up
You may have given up on our future, but love persists in the letters.
But in these letters this book is full of
The book is a testament to our shared past and love.
Well in the present we’re still in love
In the present, our love still exists.
Loving You on Paper is so much safer
Expressing love on paper remains a secure outlet.
Cause I can erase or I can scratch out
I can control and modify emotions through written words.
Or I can rip a page and throw it away
I have the power to discard and overcome emotional pain.
I can pretend you never walked out
I can create a narrative where you never left my life.
Oh I can pretend you never walked out
I can imagine a reality where your departure never occurred.
