Letter from America - Band Version

Lyrics

When you go will you send back
 A letter from America?
 Take a look up the railtrack
 From Miami to Canada
 Broke off from my work the other day
 Spend the evening thinking about
 All the blood that flowed away
 Across the ocean to the second chance
 I wonder how it got on when it reached the promised land?
 When you go will you send back
 A letter from America?
 Take a look up the railtrack
 From Miami to Canada
 I've looked at the ocean
 Tried hard to imagine
 The way you felt the day you sailed
 From Wester Ross to Nova Scotia
 We should have held you
 We should have told ya
 But you know our sense of timing
 We always wait too long
 When you go will you send back
 A letter from America?
 Take a look up the railtrack
 From Miami to Canada

 I wonder my blood
 Will you ever return
 To help us kick the life back
 To a dying mutual friend
 'Cause, do we not love her?
 Do we not say we love her?
 Do we have to roam the world
 To prove how much it hurts?
 When you go will you send back
 A letter from America?
 Take a look up the railtrack
 From Miami to Canada
