Lyrics

Greetings from Vicksburg
I know you're home
but you you wont pick up the phone
Just thought i'd write you and tell you I'm okay
Life's been good here
I had to go, but my heart thought you should know
I want you to come out to Vicksburg someday

September 25th, 9:05 pm
I finally copnquered my restraint to try you once again
The job's been going alright, I'm almost settled in
but the fight for my stability, alone I just can't win.

You have the chance to leave the life you've led.
I'll get the chance to take back things I've said
we'll start anew, I swear this much is true
I'll give my life to you

I hope you read this note and don't throw it away
cause the hardest words I ever wrote were the ones I couldnt say
The ghost of what we used to be still haunts me everday
So if you get the chance to write me back. i hope this is what youll say

I'll take the chance to leave the life I've led
Youll get the chance to take back things youve said
well start anew, I swear this much is true
ill give my life to you

you can have your garden in the yard
with a proch swing swaying
mississippi river boats coming drifting in
painted in a canvas of the fall
you can find us laughing
together we can let our lives begin again.

Chorus
