Simply overhearing a passing remark...and everything made sense..
Lyrics
Amy’s Letter (George Olsen Copyright 16/02/02)
It all at once was clear
The joke had been on me
The confusion fog has lifted
Just a bad taste memory
Among the scattered debri
Of the things you leave behind
Scratching heads and nursing heartaches
Of the duplicitous kind
Chorus
Like Amy’s letter…
Yes I found corroboration
Like divine inspiration
In Amy’s letter
She spoke the words for me
And her sad tale set me free
I was just a casual listener
Anonymously
You’d used the same old lines
Rehearsed them countless times
On an unsuspecting buyer
You’d trade counterfeit designs
Chorus
Like Amy’s letter
And I laughed a rueful sigh
And finally waved goodbye
Like Amy’s letter
I try to rise above revenge
Cut my losses, split the scene
But I had to let you know
That your secrets had been seen
If you think I’m sad and strange
Well I learned a trick or two
On how to do to others
What they can do to you..
Chorus
..In Amy’s letter
And I rest my case contented
That I gazed upon that sentence
In Amy’s letter
