We Could Send Letters Lyrics

Aztec Camera

Words and music by roddy frame
You said youre free, for me that says it all.
Youre free to push me and Im free to fall.
So if we weaken we can call it stress,
Youve got my trust Ive got your home address.
And now the only chance that we could take,
Is the chance that someone else wont make it all come true.
Were making tracks, they show our touch and go,
And now its touch and come and you should know.
But then four years wont mean that much to me,
When Ive been smothered by the sympathy you bleed.
Chorus:
Just close your eyes again
Until these things get better
Youre never far away
But we could send letters.
While you were gone I reached another town,
They couldnt help me but they showed me round,
And now Ive seen what you cant understand,
Id try to lead you but Id crush your hand.
Because the people in the village know, it doesnt matter
Where you choose to go the ends the same.
I found some blood I wasnt meant to find
I found some feelings that wed left behind
But then some blood wont mean that much to me
When Ive been smothered by the sympathy you bleed.
Chorus
