Love Letters to Bad Decisions

Verse 1 Dear 2 A.M. Dear one more drink Dear every little thing I did before I stopped to think Dear almost kiss Dear should've known Dear every time I swore That I was better off alone I should regret you Maybe someday I will But all my favorite memories Start with standing somewhere still Pre-Chorus I could write apologies For every line I've crossed But some of my worst decisions Were worth everything they cost Chorus So I'm writing love letters To bad decisions To every wrong turn I took on purpose To every “don't” That sounded like permission Every little voice that said “You know better”— I didn't listen Love letters To beautiful mistakes I wouldn't recommend them But I wouldn't give them back If good judgment wants an apology It's gonna have to wait I'm busy writing love letters To bad decisions I still make Verse 2 Dear wrong address Dear stranger's name Dear “this means nothing” That somehow never stayed that way Dear one more night Dear one last time Dear every warning sign I somehow made look like a sign Dear little lies I wanted to believe Dear every open door I knew damn well I ought to leave Pre-Chorus I could blame the timing I could blame the wine But nobody made those choices Every single one was mine Chorus So I'm writing love letters To bad decisions To every wrong turn I took on purpose To every “don't” That sounded like permission Every little voice that said “You know better”— I didn't listen Love letters To beautiful mistakes I wouldn't recommend them But I wouldn't give them back If good judgment wants an apology It's gonna have to wait I'm busy writing love letters To bad decisions I still make Bridge Dear consequences, Sorry we keep meeting like this Dear common sense, I swear you're somewhere on my list Dear tomorrow morning, You'll forgive me eventually Dear future me— I've left another mess You'll know exactly who to blame Final Chorus I'm writing love letters To bad decisions Some broke my heart Some changed my life Some only lasted Long enough to teach me Why everybody told me Not to try Love letters To every beautiful mistake Every door I shouldn't open Every chance I shouldn't take Maybe someday I'll know better Maybe someday I'll change But tonight I'm writing love letters To bad decisions And signing my name Outro (SPOKEN) Dear bad decisions, You know where to find me. xoxo
