Blank Sheet of Paper

I am just a blank sheet of paper

This fool's about to write you a letter

To tell you that he's sorry

For the way he did you wrong

To ask for your forgiveness

For leavin' you alone



He's been lookin' down at me

Seems like forever

He takes the top on and off his pen

It's like he can't decide

Just what he wants to say

If he'd just tell the truth

I'd be on my way



But he just stares at me

And I just stare at him

He don't know where to start

To say he doesn't want it to end

Now it's one hour later

And I am still a blank sheet of paper



The sunlight is shinin' through the curtains

He's almost asleep, pen in hand

There's a tear in his eye

That refuses to fall

If it would land on me

That would say it all



But he just stares at me

And I just stare at him

He don't know where to start

To say he doesn't want it to end

Now it's four hours later

And I am still a blank sheet of paper



And he just stares at me

I just stare at him

He don't know where to start

To say he wants it back again

Now, one broken heart later

I'm still a blank sheet of paper
