The Pony Express

from All That the Rain Promises by Bombadil

lyrics

I am so sorry

Take off your hat take a seat now
put a pen to paper and write
Put on a stamp
Put an a lick
The letter will send itself

write on the line
Right on time
the pony express is clockwork

I wish the rose that I gave you
Was still taped to the window
And the ponies played fiddles that weighed down their backs
Whispering I am so sorry

Just a few more errands to do
Last in line in the letter it is
Put in a coat
Put on a rack
And then forgotten

Left at a friend's
and he'd let you in
But you haven't spoken in weeks
