Mailbox - Catrien Maxwell (Original Song)

Forgive the footprints
As I tiptoe around your heart
I'd knock on the door
But I don't think it's me you want

I've been debating
With myself all day
If I should take the chance
But I always pick the safe way

I close my eyes, and I start to pretend...

Chorus:
I'm leaving my heart in your mailbox, heart in your mailbox
And hitting the road tonight
It's not the prettiest one you'll see
But it's yours if you want it
Yours if you want it tonight

Forgive the echoes
If it's not my voice you want to hear
But I could not stop singing
When I thought of how it'd feel

To have you a little closer
I'm running with imagination
A smile so wide; people, they stare
So I snap out of my mind's creation

But I've always loved the world in my head

Chorus

Forgive my heart
For getting too excited
I said, "It's not love yet"
But it's not been one to listen

So forgive my speech
My outpour of affection
If it's a one way street
I still might not stop traveling
Back to you again and again

I'll just leave my heart in your mailbox, heart in your mailbox
And hit the road tonight
It's not the prettiest one you'll see
But it's yours if you want it
Yours if you want it tonight

It's yours if you want it tonight
I hope you want it tonight
Please say you want it tonight
Please say you want it tonight

If you for a second doubt you're beautiful - don't. 

[catrienmaxwell]

@husker23 :-) Thank you so much.

[Amiaworld]

You're back! And my face hurts because people aren't supposed to smile as wide as I did when I saw your video pop up. Ow. But yay! Love the song. :)

[catrienmaxwell]

@Amiaworld Haha! Yay for smiling! Thank you!

[keroshizoo]

I'm so happy to hear you again. I wouldn't say you are back - just because for me you never were away. Your songs have always been accompanying me. I'm just glad you decided to let us enjoy your music furthermore :) Thanks, Catrien. I've missed you.

"Forgive the echoes

@catrienmaxwell ohh yeah me too..i write the lyrics too but i'm not that good at guitar playing so it's kind of hard to come up with actual music for a song. are u self-taught on guitar or did u take classes?

[firekat119]
