Last Letter Lyrics

Last Letter - Witt Lowry

...

I miss you,

uh, fuck it

this might be the hardest song I've ever had to write

I dreamt about you last night, I only see your when I close my eyes tight

I wish I told you how I felt before you left but it just never felt right

...

I wish I told you everything before you left

I won't forget the day that they found the growth in your chest

the cancer took a hold of your body and then it spread

I talk to you more now than I ever did, I'm a mess

this song would never capture the pain that I could express

I learnt from you that nothing is perfect but try your best

I know you had your demons a younger me didn't get

and out of all our demons, our biggest might be regret.

Relate more than ever, remember back when I would only see you every other week

and every other Wednesday you'd take us out to eat.

Mom and you had split, so we're living in between

looking up the word divorce to understand what it could mean

but I don't understand, mom is with another man

you've been drinking heavier, to me it was just another can.

culture full of broken homes, we were just another fam. could've left like other dads, you, you had another plan.

so you stuck around at a life that you probably would never choose, you bottled it inside and that bottle turned into booze. the yager took a hole and your body took the abuse

but finally found sobriety, cried when I got the news. I know.....and hurting more than I should

inspired by your story, couple things you should know.

I met this girl at my show, teared up by what I was told

she said I'm sober cos of you, you do way more than you know

chorus:

and I said (ohh)

please grant me the serenity to accept everything I cannot change

You, you always told me that do anything to have you back, see you one day

I, I wonder if you see me when I fall (yeah)

I wonder if you hear me now at all.

maybe if the world plays this through speakers, I'd be loud enough to reach you and you'll hear, my last letter for you
