Karla Bonoff - Letter lyrics

Back there in your room, while you were gone

I found the pages that she wrote to you

My heart just froze, but I couldn't stop myself

I see what jealously can do

I see now it's true, well there has been somebody

Who's had a real hold on you

And here in this bed, I guess you must have held her

How strange I never knew

She wrote that you said

You needed her to face the world

I wish that it could all just be erased

I can't believe she could take my place

As you came up the stairs

You asked "Are you all right?"

"I'd better go" was all I said

But there in your room I saw something that

I really wish I never read
