POSTCARDS FROM A DEAD MAN
Written by Brett and Lynette Vantreese
From the album "Lynette Vantreese"
1ST VERSE
I'm holding postcards from a dead man
Mailed before I was alive
They show the sage brush and red sand
My dad explored in '65
If he had known these would be my treasure
Would he have told so much about the weather?
CHORUS
Postcards from a dead man
Letters from an old flame
Their hearts grew cold
But the words they wrote
Will always stay the same
2ND VERSE
I found these letters from an old flame
To the man who now is mine
With perfume and hearts, she proclaims
Their love will stand the test of time
If she had known he would marry another
Would she have disclosed secrets shared by lovers?
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Pieces of paper
Never meant for my eyes
See how years later
The past and present collide
