Jordin Sparks - Postcard
It's pouring outside and my roof is leaking
I just let the raindrops bleed out the ink from my notebook sheets
And today is a Thursday and when it's three days late
I marked on the calendar and circled the day's date
This is the last straw, this isn't life here
I'm packing my dreams up and leaving my nightmares
And they say go west 'til you feel the sunset
And there you'll become a star
So I traded my skinny jeans for dreams and limousines
And I'm gone
I'll send you a postcard, saying I'm all right
I'll write on the back that I'm in love with life
And sign my name in the stars
My radio's turned up, a full tank in my car
And I promise we'll be together
I'll never say never, I'll always remember
Goodbye
(Always remember, goodbye)
'Cause I gotta go
I'll send you a postcard
Smashing on the gas, 95 on the highway
Got about a thousand more miles to go, I might make it by Friday
The road's never ending, I'm never slow-paced
The choice is now all mine for my destination
They ask why I'm rushing, my dreams are waiting
So fasten your seatbelts, 'cause I'm gonna make it
And they say go west 'til you feel the sunset
And there you'll become a star
So I traded my skinny jeans for dreams and limousines
And I'm gone
I'll send you a postcard, saying I'm all right
I'll write on the back that I'm in love with life
And sign my name in the stars
My radio's turned up, a full tank my car
And I'll promise we'll be together
I'll never say never, I'll always remember
Goodbye
(Always remember, goodbye)
'Cause I gotta go
I'll send you a postcard
I'll send you a postcard
To whom it may concern, whoever this gets to
There's no looking back, I took off my rear view
Got my hopes on the passenger side
There's only room for two
And I'll
I'll send you a postcard, saying I'm all right
I'll write on the back that I'm in love with life
And sign my name in the stars
My radio's turned up, a full tank in my car
And I promise we'll be together
I'll never say never, I'll always remember
Goodbye
(Always remember, goodbye)
'Cause I gotta go
I'll send you a postcard
