554 miles away
not a postcard from paris
Well this is no postcard from Paris, I guess you’d know
You had trouble with these winding and curvy West Virginia roads
Those mountains you saw are now blessed with inches of fresh snow
But somehow when I think of you, I don’t feel so cold
I know we haven’t been able to see one another
Our worlds quickly got so much smaller
I feel like I’m living in a snow globe and I’m stuck below the water
But you can pretend this postcard is from Paris--if you’d like
And that after my soul searching and travel, my mind falls back to you
It wouldn’t be too far from the truth
And we can pretend our beds are from the hotel we were in
We can rest our heads on pillows and pretend they are each others chests
If we listen hard enough, we might even hear a heartbeat again
Just know we’ll get through this
Sending my love and give your mom my best,
Aidan
