[Verse 1] I don't know what I would do If this letter should fall into Other hands than it should pa** through For other eyes [Verse 2] He said, "It was nothing, it's over and done" But the rotten worm was burrowing still Its spirit invades me bleeding me white For other replies [Bridge] I searched his pockets I searched his eyes I searched his wallet for clues or lies And I found a number that I somehow dialed A woman answered, a woman smiled Then she hung up on the silence un-perplexed
Innocently spun her rolodex I dialed again I could not resist Revealing just the dentist's receptionist [Verse 3] One day we'll laugh about it or maybe we'll curse But there's one thing and it's making it worse And it's the lack of forgiveness that I can't disguise No matter how well he lies [Verse 4] And we don't know each other anymore And when we touch our lips feel sore I question the longing left in his sighs For other eyes
