My Reply Lyrics - So Long, Astoria - Ataris

Got your letter and the poetry you sent me 

Postmarked in december of last year 

I really hope you're doing better 

All your friends close by your side 

One step closer to recovery 

I wish there was something I could say 

To erase each and every page 

You've been through 

Even though it's not my place to save you 

I appreciate but cant accept this thank you note 

Thats sealed with your last breath 

And I won't stand aside 

And listen to you give up 

If you'll just hold on for one more second 

Just hold on to what you have 

Just hold on/ just hold on 

If you'll just hold on for one more second 

Just hold on to what you have 

Just hold on/ just hold on 

These arms remain stretched out to you 

Maybe someday you'll accept them 

Maybe it's too late to save a young girls heart that slowly stopped beating 

(maybe) 

Wake up wake up you've gotta believe 

Wake up wake up 

You cant give up time keeps going on without us 

Long after we're dead and gone 

I wish there was something I could say 

To erase each and every page 

You've been through 

Even though it's not my place to save you 

I appreciate but cant accept this thank you note 

Thats sealed with your last breath 

And I won't stand aside 

And listen to you give up 

If you'll just hold on for one more second 

Just hold on to what you have 

Just hold on/ just hold on 

If you'll just hold on for one more second 

Just hold on to what you have 

Just hold on/ just hold on
