For the longest time I've been wrong and wrong again
I hope it's not too late to mend your heart
God knows sometimes I blew it

Tell me what to do I'll do it
There's no safer place than in your arms


Well I found that note dated April 24
Must have been two days before you walked out the door


Tell me, how many hearts will break?
How many ships will sink?
How many good byes and bad cries is it really gonna take?

How many loves are gonna lose?
How many lives won't stay together?
All because of unsent letters


I sat down at my laptop, searched through my whole inbox
For messages I never did reply

Then I started one by one, writing letters to everyone
That pushed away with my pride
And I found old friends

And I thanked my mom
And I told my brother, it's been way too long


Tell me, how many hearts will break?
How many ships will sink?
How many good byes and bad cries is it really gonna take?

How many loves are gonna lose?
How many lives won't stay together?
All because of unsent letters


Oh I'll be the first to give in
Because I can't make the same mistakes again

Oh I can't live without you no more
So I'm taking this note to your door


How many hearts will break?
How many ships will sink?
How many good byes and bad cries is it really gonna take?

How many loves are gonna lose?
How many lives won't stay together?
All because of unsent letters


All because of unsent letters
