Xavier Rudd - The Letter lyrics

(I) I sit by my window
With everything I've done
Doors that I've opened and
Webs that I've spun
And the candle beside me burns to the left
And the rain on the clay sends
The lizard to it's nest

And there will be a time
When I hold you again
With my arms spread out, just you'll rest
And I'll write you a letter
With everything I know
About the weight of the world and
The way things could go

So live up my friend, step back again
For some things will be given
For some you'll have to bend
You'll have to bend my friend
To hold on to this
For some things will come easy
And some will be a test you'll have to bend

Now the ocean connects me
To everything I know
By mellowing my mind soon my heart
It can call with these trees as my witness
I'll slice up some fruit
And each to their peaceful
Good intentions and truths
There will be a time
When I will hold you again
With my arms spread out
I would dive right in soon I'll

Here is your letter, with everything I know
About the weight of the world and
The way things could go

So give up my friend, step back again
For some things will be given
For some you'll have to bend
You'll have to bend my friend
To hold on to this
For some things will come easy
And some will be a test you'll have to bend

Now the ocean connects me
To everything I know
By mellowing my mind soon my heart
It can call with these trees as my witness
I'll slice up some fruit
And each to their peaceful
Good intentions and truths
There will be a time
When I will hold you again
With my arms spread out, I will dive right in

So now here's your letter
With everything I know
About the weight of the world and
The way things could go
