A Letter From Joey

(album: You Could Have Been With Me - 1981)

This morning Joey had me wondering why he made love like he was saying goodbye
Tonight I found out what was going on
Waiting there for me when I came home (I came home)
It was a letter from Joey, he left it on the door, he don't live here anymore
I got a letter from Joey, he said it's over and out, got to live without Joey
Joey had a kind of innocence, what he's doing now it don't make sense
He always said I was the only one
Now I can't even tell ya where he's gone (where he's gone)

[Chorus:]
I got a letter from Joey, he left it on the door, he don't live here anymore
I got a letter from Joey, he said it's over and out
There can be no doubt, got to live without Joey

Breaking my heart, why is he breaking my heart, why is he
I try to sleep, but I wake up crying
I wanna live, but I feel like dying, Joey
Joey was the one who made it right, like no other lover in my life
What is done can never be undone
Now my loneliness has just begun (just begun)

[Chorus]

Joey was the one who made it right...
What is done can never be undone...
