Eli Bolin: listen
Mailmen
(Amazing Jellies)
August 16, 2009
written & performed by Eli Bolin & Allison Posner
I walked to the bedroom
I walked through the sun
I cooked us a dinner for all that I've done
I count on each blessing each time you appear
This is my favorite day of the year
You told me you loved me
You told me you'd lied
I called you a name and I got no reply
I came to you later my face full of fear
That was my favorite day of the year
We ran by the thunder, the sleet, and the snow
And just like the mailmen we knew how to go
I played you a song and you played it for keeps
And when you remember the tune my heart leaps
I take a deep breath and I say loud and clear
That that was my favorite day of the year
Yes, that was my favorite day of the year
