Song lyrics
Joan moved away to Colorado
Said she found God and a boyfriend as well
One that won't hit her or make her feel shallow
There's a lot to learn...about Joan

Before I moved in Joan had a fling with the landlord
So she got to stay here for free
And I'm not a genius, but I figured out
There's a lot to learn...from Joan

And after all this time
You were waiting on the ride
To stop at the place where they slowly misplaced your life...
Go get it right

I went to the closet to get dressed for work
When I spotted a box I had not seen before
With all kinds of letters that never got sent
To a guy in Colorado since 1994

And I know it's wrong
But I sat and opened in no certain order a letter or two
she talked about blisters and bruises of anger
And she bought a handgun to learn how to shoot

And the last letter said that she had to get out
But I couldn't make out the rest of the note
From the blood stains all over the page of the letters
There's a lot to learn
And there's a lot I learned...about Joan

And after all this time, you were waiting on the ride
To stop at the place where you slowly misplaced your life
Oh, and after all this time, you were waiting on the ride
To stop at the place where they slowly misplaced your life...
Go get it right

Go get it right
Go get it right
Go get it right

I bought the cd the day before yesterday at the Avril Lavigne concert and only had a chance to listen to this song once,but I thought that it was about this girl right,Joan,who is like sending him letters,and then she finally just gives up and kills herself

wow...this is such a powerful song...everytime i hear i feel like crying my eyes out...it jsut touches your soul...but in a way that you have to listen to the lyrics...which then makes you think of a time that you were like that...Butch Walker just has such a way with words that alot of other people can't handle...if i had to use one word to describe this song it would have to be touching... ...but you have to love it...
