Unanswered Letter

Lyrics

[Verse] Her heart torn open And left like an unanswered letter Words were not spoken Just left in a spidery scrawl [Verse] Twisted and gutted The last of the smoke in the air She gets up to leave And idly fixes her hair [Chorus] Words from home Words from home What we miss are words from home [Verse] I lost my heart I left it alongside the river That blackbird clucking Songs he knows nothing about That bird returning To a home that makes him sing out [Chorus] Words from home Words from home What we need are words from home [Verse] Her heart torn open And left like an unanswered letter Words were not spoken Just left in a spidery scrawl [Verse] Twisted and gutted The last of the smoke in the air She gets up to leave And idly fixes her hair [Chorus] Words from home Words from home What we miss are words from home [Verse] I lost my heart I left it alongside the river That blackbird clucking Songs he knows nothing about That bird returning To a home that makes him sing out [Chorus] Words from home Words from home What we miss are words from home
