IOU lyrics

You wrote letters to our friends So that we could all pretend You were able to defend my love Complex lines in verdigris I owe you and you owe me But I'm sure we won't agree, my love And all the walls were falling down Where all the words you wrote were found And all the silent space around Was suddenly alive We took them as we took our leave Filling pockets, filling sleeves We were little more than thieves, my love And we read every single note And every thought and every quote I cried at every word you wrote, my love
