I know that I am perfect for the sidelines
Not even a game to be played
I had the perfect moment of when I’d call you “mine”
But I guess some shots are better not made

I know that I don’t even deserve you
Because you’re so perfect and I’m so low
I know that there is nothing that I could ever do
To make you love me so

I built churches from the prayers I made for us but they never came true
And libraries of the stories that are not real
In every song I think of you
Will you know how I feel
When all the letters are sealed
And they’ll never be sent to you

I know I’m making a small thing so grand
But soon you’re gonna be gone
Not enough time to even hold your hand
Or say all the things we want

I soon won’t be able to see your face
Or laugh like I’m with you
How can we be us when we’re in different places
And how can I not feel blue

I built churches from the prayers I made for us but they never came true
And libraries of the stories that are not real
In every song I think of you
Will you know how I feel
When all the letters are sealed
And they’ll never be sent to you

I wanna spend the rest of my lifetime with you
And we can do everything we need to do
We can face all storms and all weather
At least we’re together
And we can work it though

I built churches from the prayers I made for us and I still pray they come true
And libraries of the stories that could be real
In every song I think of you
Will you know how I feel
When all the letters are sealed
Should I send them to you?
