An envelope of promises
That was never fully sealed
With letters from a heart
That was never fully healed
Lyin' in a box somewhere
Out of mind and out of sight
Where the memories still lay
Through the day and through the night
The mail box is empty
Street lights illuminate
It's already midnight
And I can hardly wait
Lying with my thoughts at night
Hoping everything's alright
Everything
Will be alright tonight
It's a long road ahead of me
So the pedals to the floor
It's the promises we made
That I wanted even more
I missed the turn in front of me
How did I get turned around
This back country roads
The new direction that I've found
The sun will still be settin'
Without you by my side
Tryin' to let go
Of the ropes that we tied
Tryin' to find my way
Back to the start
