I found this faded picture of you and me
On Lake Michigan, you were smiling
The wind was blowing in your hair
I think it's been around five years
And everything and nothing's changed
God, I wish that you were here

I know I should have called
I know I should have stayed
I should have said a lot of things
I hope it's not too late

Dear Isabelle, been thinking about you
Dear Isabelle, so lonely without you
I pretended I was doing well
But without you, it's been hell, dear Isabelle

Sometimes I'm not good with words
But you knew that so I wrote this verse
In hopes that it would someday reach your ears
And I still wonder where you are
But it doesn't matter 'cause it's still too far
The lake has never looked so clear

I know I should have called
I know I should have stayed
I should have said a lot of things
I hope it's not too late

Dear Isabelle, been thinking about you
Dear Isabelle, so lonely without you
I pretended I was doing well
But without you, it's been hell, dear Isabelle

It's hard for me to write this
Is it hard for you to know that I still care?
Would it kill you to forgive me?
Come on, Isabelle, I know that you're out there

I know I should have called
I know I should have stayed
I should have said a lot of things
I hope it's not too late

Dear Isabelle, been thinking about you
Dear Isabelle, so lonely without you
I pretended I was doing well
But without you, it's been hell, dear Isabelle
