Lyrics for A Letter To Elise as interpreted by BigFatPaNda

A Letter To Elise Lyrics
Oh Elise it doesn't matter what you say
I just can't stay here every yesterday
Like keep on acting out the same
The way we act out
Every way to smile
Forget
And make-believe we never needed
Any more than this
Any more than this

Oh Elise it doesn't matter what you do
I know I'll never really get inside of you
To make your eyes catch fire
The way they should
The way the blue could pull me in
If they only would
If they only would
At least I'd lose this sense of sensing something else
That hides away
From me and you
There're worlds to part
With aching looks and breaking hearts
And all the prayers your hands can make
Oh I just take as much as you can throw
And then throw it all away
Oh I throw it all away
Like throwing faces at the sky
Like throwing arms round
Yesterday
I stood and stared
Wide-eyed in front of you
And the face I saw looked back
The way I wanted to
But I just can't hold my tears away
The way you do

Elise believe I never wanted this
I thought this time I'd keep all of my promises
I thought you were the girl I always dreamed about
But I let the dream go
And the promises broke
And the make-believe ran out...

So Elise
It doesn't matter what you say
I just can't stay here every yesterday
Like keep on acting out the same
The way we act out
Every way to smile
Forget
And make-believe we never needed
Any more than this
Any more than this

And every time I try to pick it up
Like falling sand
As fast as I pick it up
It runs away through my clutching hands
But there's nothing else I can really do
There's nothing else I can really do
There's nothing else
I can really do
At all...

Okay, who posted this song under blink 182? "A Letter To Elise" is a song by the Cure!!! blink 182 worked with Robert Smith of the Cure in the song "All of This." Is this song "All of This"??? Nope. Someone messed up. :-/.

i love that they took this song and they didn't make it sound exactly like the cure's version...they sang it in their own style, but still kept true to the original.
awesome version and awesome song

I've actually heard this now, and seriously, Blink 182 needs to get involved with the Cure more, All of this is my favoirte track off the new album and this just rocks.

It's pretty incredible. If you told me Blink 182 was going to cover A Letter to Elise I probably would've blown my brains out on pure principal. That would've been a mistake. This is Blinks best work. It really is a wonderful cover. They respect the original, and add thier own twist to it. It's sad that Blink broke up when they were actually getting good (musically).

This song is dope. THe cure version obviously deserves some props but this one is all-time. its different but its pretty ill. "You and me were worlds apart with aching looks and breaking hearts", i like that line. definately the best song at the cure tribute at MTV.
