Dear Isabelle

(album: Live It Up - 2010)

I found this faded picture of you and me on Lake Michigan
you were smiling, the wind was blowing in your hair
I think it's been around 5 years,
and everything and nothing's changed
God, I wish that you were here
I know I should have called
I know I should have stayed
I should have said a lot of things
I hope it's not too late
Dear Isabelle, been thinking about you
Dear Isabelle, so lonely without you
I pretended I was doing well,
but without you, it's been hell, Dear Isabelle
Sometimes I'm not good with words,
but you knew that so I wrote this verse
in hopes that it would someday reach your ears
and I still wonder where you are ,
but it doesn't matter cause it's still too far
The lake has never looked so clear
I know I should have called
I know I should have stayed
I should have said a lot of things
I hope it's not too late
Dear Isabelle, been thinking about you
Dear Isabelle, so lonely without you
I pretended I was doing well,
but without you, it's been hell, Dear Isabelle
It's hard for me to write this,
Is it hard for you to know that I still care?
Would it kill you to forgive me?
Come on, Isabelle, I know that you're out there
I know I should have called
I know I should have stayed
I should have said a lot of things
I hope it's not too late
Dear Isabelle, been thinking about you
Dear Isabelle, so lonely without you
I pretended I was doing well,
but without you, it's been hell, Dear Isabelle
