“Dear Isabelle”

I found this faded picture of you and me on Lake Michigan 
you were smiling, the wind was blowing in your hair 
I think it’s been around 5 years, 
and everything and nothing’s changed 
God, I wish that you were here 
I know I should have called 
I know I should have stayed 
I should have said a lot of things 
I hope it’s not too late 
Dear Isabelle, been thinkin’ about you 
Dear Isabelle, so lonely without you 
I pretended I was doing well, 
but without you, it’s been hell, Dear Isabelle 
Sometimes I’m not good with words, 
but you knew that so I wrote this verse 
in hopes that it would someday reach your ears 
and I still wonder where you are , 
but it doesn’t matter cause it’s still too far 
The lake has never looked so clear 
I know I should have called 
I know I should have stayed 
I should have said a lot of things 
I hope it’s not too late 
Dear Isabelle, been thinkin’ about you 
Dear Isabelle, so lonely without you 
I pretended I was doing well, 
but without you, it’s been hell, Dear Isabelle 
It’s hard for me to write this, 
Is it hard for you to know that I still care? 
Would it kill you to forgive me? 
Come on, Isabelle, I know that you’re out there 
I know I should have called 
I know I should have stayed 
I should have said a lot of things 
I hope it’s not too late 
Dear Isabelle, been thinkin’ about you 
Dear Isabelle, so lonely without you 
I pretended I was doing well, 
but without you, it’s been hell, Dear Isabelle
