This pale Mucha postcard   Brings back orange carpet   We called roaches butterflies   And ate our pies at Birchwood Saloon      Off the only road that leaves the state   I would sing and pass the plate   They all knew me by my face   And my father's name      Heavy letter underneath my door, stark reminder when I had before   It's hard to believe I've come this far   Heavy letter in the dresser drawer, tore it open like a candy bar   It's hard to believe I've come this far      Bright red hot rod hardtop   Off to town for Moose's Tooth   You comin' with to the parkin' lot   If not you know, my window's never locked      Drew leaned in and said it   But his heart wouldn't let it   That's all right   I'll be my husband's wife      Heavy letter makes a perfect mark on the page and in the heart   It's hard to believe I've come this far   Heavy letter in the dresser drawer, tore it open like a candy bar   It's hard to believe I've come this far      Nervous, tearin' through the sky   Grievin' every inch I gain   Counting pools and freeways      I will sing and pass the plate   They will know me by my face   And my father's name      Heavy letter in the dresser drawer, tore it open like a candy bar   It's hard to believe I've come this far   Heavy letter headed for your shore, a premonition of what's in store   It's hard to believe we've come this far
