Maddie Poppe - Postcard From Me Lyrics






Wish I could write a postcard to my younger self
And tell you that I'm happy and that I'm doing well
That here I am in New York playing shows back to back
There's no getting used to that

If I could
I'd tell you about the heat when the spotlights on
I'd tell you how it sounds when they all applaud

But I can't write it all down, fit it all on a postcard
White space runnin' right out, I'm not even halfway so far
I'd say you wouldn't believe the people you'll meet, the places you'll go in your wildest dreams
You'll have to wait and see
Cause I can't fit it on a postcard from me

Met a boy in LA, right now we're only friends
But he's what you've always wanted and you're gonna fall for him
He dresses like a cowboy, he might not be your type
But he's nothing like those other guys

If I could
I'd tell you how we kissed in a hotel room
And I'd tell you how it feels when he looks at you

But I can't write it all down, fit it all on a postcard
White space runnin' right out, I'm not even halfway so far
I'd say you wouldn't believe the people you'll meet, the places you'll go in your wildest dreams
You'll have to wait and see
Cause I can't fit it on a postcard from me

I'm back here in my hometown, how long have I been gone
The boy who was too good for me is still out mowin' the lawn
Walkin' round my old house that I couldn't wait to leave
Well now it means so much to me

I can't write it all down, fit it all on a postcard
White space runnin' right out, I'm not even halfway so far
I'd say you wouldn't believe the people you'll meet, the places you'll go in your wildest dreams
You'll have to wait and see
Cause I can't fit it on a postcard from me
No I can't fit it on a postcard from me

    Anyone here from Iowa besides me?? I love Maddie. She puts Iowa on the map with her awesome music 🎶!!!! I love this girl 👧🏼! Go Iowa!!! Go Maddie ❣️❣️❣️💛🖤💛🖤💛🖤💛🖤💛🖤

  16. R.... S....

    This album is a 'whirlwind' of amazing songs

  17. S.... C....

    This would be a good lyrics video with some cool travel shots, colorful stamps and postcard graphics faded over the video and pictures in different frames and sizes.

  18. R.... k....

    Love your voice Maddie ☺❤

  19. N.... L....

    Not really a fan of the fluffy produced.. background music. But like this song overall with her vocals.

  26. A.... A....

    Who else loves Maddie?

    A.... A....

    A Actor ME! ME ME ME ME MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

  27. J.... W....

    Love the personal references on this one, and how it’s broken down into the three parts. Feels like I’m reading her diary.

  28. R.... K....

    😭 Geemineese Maddie!

  29. C.... B....

    I love this one as well.....not a bad song on your new Album!! Just WOW!!

  30. S.... G....

    Hope you go far maddie lovely voice

  31. M.... C....

    Has she made a soundtrack for a Disney movie yet?

    M.... C....

    Mr Cat Man I don’t thinks so but she did the Bare Necessities from the Jungle Book on American Idol

  32. D.... C....

    I've mowed one time since 2015...

  33. T.... o....

    A postcard from me.
    I predicted from your first audtion last year that you would win AI.
    YOU DID!
    I love you.

  34. P.... G....

    Maddie writes and sings the best songs. I just don't see her with Caleb. I know she will grow up and move on. First loves are that first loves.

    P.... G....

    Paiger Boehm Maddie and Caleb are very happy together. I don’t think this is either first love.I love seeing them together and seem so happy

    P.... G....

    Why would she move on from someone who obviously loves her in every situation.

    P.... G....

    Listen to her new song “Not Losing You”! She knows what an absolute gem Caleb is. They are 20 and 21, not teenagers. Many people meet their significant others during the “college aged years” which they are. I see them lasting since they met and bonded before fame. They seem to have a strong friendship, as well as much love for each other.

  35. D.... S....

    Another Maddie original! So good... So you!

  36. L.... A....

    ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤👐

  37. B.... A....

    Maddie, Maddie, Maddie. Listen to Papa bear. You have it. You tell the stories perfectly. Please stay you.

  38. A.... H....

    That first person who disliked this music doesn’t know real music at all. Lol

  39. b.... g....

    So Awesome, love, love it😍

  40. K.... S....

    Not a single bad song in the whole album, wow.

  41. L.... S....

    Love your voice, love this song, love the meaning behind this song!!! GREAT JOB!!

  42. j.... l....

    Aww Maddie and Caleb are so sweet

  43. L.... V....

    ❤❤❤❤

  44. A.... M....

    LOVEEE ❤️❤️❤️

  45. R.... A....

  46. J.... G....

    Cool I'm loving your new album!
