The Letter

(álbum: Borrowed Time - 2017)

Doubt I'll ever put this on a record
It's more of a letter to you
I remember all them nights we spent together
I remember every single I love you
Hell, you're better off without me
But I'll always have you
In my heart and in my memory
And I'll keep you there 'til my days are few

So lay your head down on his pillow
Let him hold you tight
'Cause he didn't hurt you the way I did
And I'll just wish I was him tonight

And I heard you took up drinking
I guess you learned that from me
I was always gonna quit somehow
When I started my family
We were on the verge of that happiness
Why did it have to end so soon?
Doubt I'll ever put this on a record
But it'll sound just right in a smoke filled room

So lay your head down on his pillow
Let him hold you tight
'Cause he didn't hurt you the way I did
And I'll just wish I was him tonight

I wish I had a chance to go back
And if I did I'd make it right
But I don't expect you to believe that
After all you're twice shy
And I'm still standing' on the fighting' side of time

So lay your head down on his pillow
Let him hold you tight
'Cause he didn't hurt you the way I did
And I'll just wish I was him tonight
