In a letter dated the tenth of June You wrote like a girl on her honeymoon You said this city is sweet and strange You said our town is never gonna change Well I don't know what you think you'll find But it doesn't need to be so hard when you fall Just a whole lot more of what you left behind And it doesn't need to be so hard when you fall It doesn't need to be so far when you fall, not at all You can't see the ground with your head so high and you walk so tall You believe my love will only bring you down In a letter dated the end of the world You wrote to tell me you'd lost your girl You wrote to say how the well ran dry You wanted to know if I was satisfied Well there's no wisdom in this song And it doesn't need to be so hard when you fall And I never wanted to prove you wrong But it doesn't need to be so hard when you fall It doesn't need to be so far when you fall, not at all You can't see the ground with your head so high when you walk so tall You believe my love will only bring you down I suppose that might be true But I'll wait for you When your honeymoon is through I won't recall Not at all It's not hard when you fall
