Written In Elegant Script
press down on the paper
leave the indent with care
I'll know it was your handwriting
I'll know that you were there
It's such a simple subject
it can't be left unsaid
but then why would I rather keep quiet
and just lay here in my bed
The stitches came undone
and the book has now been burned
I'm crying over nothing
for northing's all I've learned
Words to pen
and pen to paper
you know I'd be lying
if I said I'd write later
leave the indent with care
I'll know it was your handwriting
I'll know that you were there
It's such a simple subject
it can't be left unsaid
but then why would I rather keep quiet
and just lay here in my bed
The stitches came undone
and the book has now been burned
I'm crying over nothing
for northing's all I've learned
Words to pen
and pen to paper
you know I'd be lying
if I said I'd write later
