I got a letter
A real letter with stamps on it
A postcard from long ago
When the future was
Ours
And like you wrote
About your scout for freedom
Words with wings like the butterfly
And I think i understand
That slowly, slowly, oh so slowly
You won all of your nights back
Slowly, slowly, oh so slowly
We slipped into forgetfulness
Where the light is weak
What was You and I
I wrote a letter
About living with the curse
I gave You my version of the truth
Just to make you understand
That slowly, slowly, oh so slowly
We won all of our nights back
Slowly, slowly, oh so slowly
We slipped into the memory
Hidden far back
What was You and I
Slowly, slowly, oh so slowly
We won all of our nights back
Slowly, slowly, oh so slowly
We slipped into forgetfulness
Where the light is weak
What was You and I
