Lyrics to "3 x 5" by John Mayer

Here's the featured song this week in The Top Unknown/Underrated Songs of the Rock Era*.  It's from one of The Top 100 Albums of the Rock Era*--Room for Squares.  John Mayer and "3 x 5".  Again, you can view it now by clicking on the "Play Arrow" to the right in the Unknown/Underrated Songs section or anytime by clicking on the Unknown/Underrated Tab at the top of the page.  I implore you to check out the section on a regular basis--you will be glad you did.  None of the songs that will be featured there reached the "Top 10".  But they should have.


I'm writing you to catch you up on places I've been
you held this letter, probably get excited
but there's nothing else inside it


don't have a camera by my side this time
hope that I would see the world through both my eyes
maybe I would tell you all about it
when I'm in the mood
to lose my way
with words


today clouds are painting colors of the cowboy cliche
it's strange how clouds all look like mountains
in the sky next to the mountains anyway


don't have a camera by my side this time
hope that I would see the world through both my eyes
maybe I would tell you all about it
when I'm in the mood
to lose my way but let me say


you should have seen that sunrise
with your own eyes
it brought me back to life
you'll be with me next time I go outside
just no more 3 by 5's
