(Puttin` pain on paper crying in permanent blue)
When I began this letter I had hopes I wouldn`t cry
But I always knew it would cause me more than a stamp to tell you goodbye
Puttin` pain on paper mailing all my hurt to you
Puttin` pain on paper crying in permanent blue
Now this pen lets me say the things I could never say to you
But these shaky lines would look as sad in any shade of blue
Puttin` pain on paper...
I`m glad this ink is permanent it proves I`m not all done
Cause if tears could wash these words away you wouldn`t know who they`re from
Puttin` pain on paper...
Crying in permanent blue
