Turning Pages from Turning Pages by Andrew McKnight

Verse 1
I've carefully crafted you this letter
though I've tried my best, some words fell out of place
I hope each day finds you a little better
and each passing night brings, a little grace

The story we've written is not a long one,
sufficiently poetic I suppose,
and now that school is all but over,
I've time to analyze the metaphors and prose

Chorus
but there's no use in second guessing
and no changing the fact
that that sound is pages turning
and turning away from turning back

Verse 2
I know you'll never know what lies behind you,
so I'll rest my pen and set those details down
about love left unmade like the bed we both knew
and how these walls don't say much, while I'm around
Chorus

Verse 3
I hope you find new love worth attracting
and he's strong enough to handle all he finds
I hope he's everything I'm lacking
but I'll keep the credit for these parting lines
