lyrics

I think I'll mail myself to China
Visit Aaron
We can climb The Great Wall
He said walking through the city's
Like the world's biggest game of pinball
I can meet some of his friends
He's got one that reminds him of me
And we might clash like blood and water
But we're still two things he's always gonna need
Or we'll melt like tea and honey down your throat
When you've been screaming back at me

Oh I'd mail myself to you
But I don't know where you're living at these days

I think I'll mail myself to Asheville
Jonathan's the only one who cares
He's been looking for his brother
And he thinks that he might find him down there
Well I've never worn his shoes
But it's hell man to lose the ones you love
I hope that he's still living
And his brother finds his way out of the mud

Oh I'd mail myself to you
But I don't know where you're living at these days

I keep checking in my mailbox for your letter but have gotten no reply
I know I shouldn't take it personal but I cannot help wondering why

Oh I'd mail myself to you
But I don't know where you're living at these days
I'd mail myself to you
I don't know where you're living at
I'd mail myself to you
You won't tell me where you're living at
I'd mail myself to you
I don't know where you're living at these days
