[Verse 1]
I come home late after closing the coffee shop
Make myself some dinner then get to drinking
And Peter down at the corner store, the young man, our friend remember?
Well, he's moving on, he don't work there anymore
I went by last night and he was gone
[Chorus 1]
And I just wish I could tell you
Yeah, I just wish I could tell you
[Verse 2]
Wake-up phone call from the LAPD, say they wanna talk to me about the theft
Can't say I haven't been keeping busy
I couldn't write a song, so I tried to play that song that we used to sing together bout sailing
Couldn't make it through the first verse without breaking down and crying
What the hell is wrong with me?
[Chorus 2]
Hey I just wish we could sing it
Yeah, I just wish we could sing it
[Verse 3]
To answer your letter, most days I'm doing fine, but sometimes I still get deep, down, dark, and feeling low
But now I wear sunglasses and a big jacket, and get so high that I can't see the bottom, it helps a little
And when it's too hard to handle I call Carlos and we talk it out
I come home late after closing the coffee shop
Make myself some dinner then get to drinking
And Peter down at the corner store, the young man, our friend remember?
Well, he's moving on, he don't work there anymore
I went by last night and he was gone
[Chorus 1]
And I just wish I could tell you
Yeah, I just wish I could tell you
