What It Ain’t

Words/Music – Rand Anderson, John Bennett

Hello my friend
I have so much to say
I’m writing you this letter
I hope you’ll read someday
I wish the words
Tell you
What I need them to
Just know that I’m sorry
And I’m always missing you
I hope to see you soon
And I love you

Those younger dreams
Always seemed so near
The memories slowly fade
Until they disappear
Now there’s no one left
To shoot me to the moon
It’s just a another chorus
To that same old tune
I hope to see you soon
And I love you

What it is
And what it ain’t
Never mind the pictures
They’ll try to paint
Like a puzzle
In the wind
Just can’t find all the pieces
And put them back again

Wide awake
Like a fool I hope and pray
Wishing there was somehow
We could meet again someday
Like a runaway train
Running down the track
Too late to stop
And it ain’t coming back
I hope I see you soon
And I love you

What it is
And what it ain’t
Never mind the pictures
They are trying to paint
Like a puzzle in the wind
Gonna find all the pieces
And put them back again

Just another mile to the bridge
On this fine and sunny day
I hear the river calling me
I’m gonna fly
So far away

What it is
And what it ain’t
Never mind the pictures
They are trying to paint
Like a puzzle in the wind
Time to pick up all the pieces
And put them back again
Put them back again
