Letter From a Dead Heart Songtext
von Jimmy Barnes

It′s lonely out here all alone
There's nothing ′round for miles
It's cold and the wind, it just keeps blowing
It's been blowing for a while
And yesterday seems far away
A memory that′s fading
The day that you walked out that door
And I am still here waiting

But even in this place
I know I can find a way
To get you off my mind
And write the words I need to say


It′s just a letter from this dead heart
To say that it's all right
And you don′t have to read it
I will make it through the night
I won't try to call you darling
I′m going nowhere near the phone
I'll let this letter from my dead heart bring me home
I′ll let it bring me home

Everything is cracked and dry
And turning into dust
And even though it shone like gold
Well it slowly turns to rust
Oh but there's something out here beautiful
Out here that still exists
And when I close my eyes
That wind reminds me of your kiss

Oh as it brushed against my cheek
On the day you said goodbye
I couldn't find the words to say
To make you change your mind

It′s just a letter from this dead heart
To say that it′s all right
And you don't have to read it
I will make it through the night
I won′t try to call you darling
I'm going nowhere near the phone
I′ll let this letter from my dead heart bring me home


And though you're miles away
I never felt you closer
And I know I took my time
But now I finally know that
You don′t have to be right by my side
To make this world feel right
And every day you made me happy
Was followed by the darkest night

It's just a letter from this dead heart
To say that it's all right
And you don′t have to read it
I will make it through the night
I won′t try to call you darling
I'm going nowhere near the phone
I′ll let this letter from my dead heart bring me home
Let it bring me home
