writing to reach you

everyday i wake up and it's sunday
whatever's in my head won't go away
the radio is playing all the usual

because my inside is outside
my right side's on the left side
cuz i'm writing to reach you
but i might never reach you
i long to teach you
about you
but that's not you

it's good to know that you are home for christmas
it's good to know that you are doing well
it's good to know that all you know i'm hurting
it's good to know i'm feeling not so well

because my inside is outside
my right side's on the left side
cuz i'm writing to reach you
but i might never reach you
i long to teach you
about you
but that's not you
do you know it's true
and that won't do

maybe then tomorrow will be monday
and whatever's in my head should go away
still the radio keeps playing all the usual

because my inside is outside
my right side's on the left side
cuz i'm writing to reach you
but i might never reach you
i long to teach you
about you
but that's not you
do you know it's true
and that won't do
you know it's you
i'm talking to
