Lyrics
Missives – Lyrics Verse: Although my last temp gig was minimum wage – it’s still a lot better than my high school days! But I know you don’t agree… Well, we’re all just tryin’ to carve out a space, in this little human race but it’s hard you see. Our parent’s may have braved the way but we’re still tryin’ to make peace with what they say…can we follow our dreams? Chorus: I wait for missives in my e-mail, love letters in your last phone call – while I file and type all day, my mind’s a million miles away…with you! Verse: Well you sat front row at my last three shows and clapped for every piece of prose, don’t think I didn’t notice too! Between freedom and responsibility my heart is torn, do I wear the pants this mornin’ or let my femininity show. Well my ego may be slightly bruised and my one-liners overused…but I love that you laugh anyway! Chorus: I wait for missives in my e-mail, love letters in your last phone call – while I file and type all day, my mind’s a million miles away…with you! Missives, yeah, yeah, love letters too…I…will wait…for…you.
