lyrics

A Letter

I did not know as I started to write this song
that it was going to be another one for you
I was talking to a friend we both had tiring things to end
so we thought it’s best to write some letters to
to the women that we love though they're a million miles from us
and the one I need to write to is you,
yet I don't intend to bring your loving to an end
I just think a few more words would do me good,

cause there is a couple things that I need to get off of my chest
and to write a song is the best way that I can
cause I held back for too long and I got to shout it out
I just hope it’s not too much for you to bear

what I mean to say is I still feel for you baby
and I think about you way more than I should
what I mean to say is that these feelings won’t slip away
and I kind of feel misunderstood

last time we saw each other was a strange reunion without words
so there’s no way further down
and you mean way too much to me to just turn around and leave you be
so I just wanted you to know
that was has been has been a very special kind of thing
and if it was up to me I would have you here again
but I respect the way you go and I wish you the best of luck with it all
and maybe someday we can talk again,
and I haven’t had a chance to say I’m sorry about your daddy
and I hope he's in a good place now
If you ever need a hand or someone on whom you can depend
I’d be glad if it was me, you know

what I mean to say is I still feel for you baby
and I think about you way more than I should
what I mean to say is that these feelings won’t slip away
and I kind of feel misunderstood
and I’m trying to find a way to bring some closure to that tale
bring some peace inside of my weary heart again
yet I got that feeling that you still feel for me and you sometimes think of me
and if I’m wrong please tell me so
