Dear Isabelle

I found this faded picture of you and me on Lake Michigan
You were smiling, the wind was blowing in your hair
I think it's been around 5 years
And everything and nothing's changed.

God, I wish that you were here
I know I should have called
I know I should have stayed
I should have said a lot of things
I hope it's not too late.

Dear Isabelle, been thinkin' about you
Dear Isabelle, so lonely without you
I pretended I was doing well
But without you, it's been hell, Dear Isabelle
Sometimes I'm not good with words
But you knew that so I wrote this verse
In hopes that it would someday reach your ears
And I still wonder where you are
But it doesn't matter cause it's still too far.

The lake has never looked so clear
I know I should have called
I know I should have stayed
I should have said a lot of things
I hope it's not too late
Dear Isabelle, been thinkin' about you
Dear Isabelle, so lonely without you
I pretended I was doing well,
But without you, it's been hell, Dear Isabelle.

It's hard for me to write this
Is it hard for you to know that I still care?
Would it kill you to forgive me?
Come on, Isabelle, I know that you're out there
I know I should have called
I know I should have stayed
I should have said a lot of things
I hope it's not too late
Dear Isabelle, been thinkin' about you
Dear Isabelle, so lonely without you
I pretended I was doing well
But without you, it's been hell, Dear Isabelle.
