about

A Lovely Letter was later recorded and released by Po1 on the 1993 album Ducks and Drakes

lyrics

There’s always someone that knows better than me
Someone who can prove it
Someone always takes the pen from my hand
Forces my words to fit

I could be her
She could be me
Nobody would know
I could be her
She could be me
Nobody would know

And now I feel so much at ease with the world
Nothing really left to say
I hope tomorrow will be just like the day
Little sister went away

I could be her
She could be me
Nobody would know
I could be her
She could be me
Nobody would know

I sit and watch the girl who used to be me
Speaking shallow promises
She sends the poison and the fireworks to me
In a lovely letter

I could be her
She could be me
Nobody would know
I could be her
She could be me
Nobody would know
