Shirley Jean
Dear Shirley Jean, I hope this finds you good
I wanted to write but didn't know if I should
So many years now that I lost what is real
But I still remember how you made me feel
From boys home to boys home until I was eighteen
Sent me to prison, they said I was mean
And as young as I was, I could handle my own
The men that I dealt with I left cold stone
It's the last night that I see your face
Daydreams of you were my sweetest place
Time's taken it's toll but I'm alright to go
It's my last night and I thought you should know
Writing these words don't come easy to me
But I've run out of time and soon I'll be free
And you were the only one I ever had
The only bright spot in a life that went bad
The years they have past, but I got through them all
With the wallet size picture of you on my wall
And the way that you kissed me without regret
It's something my heart will never forget
It's the last night that I see your face
Daydreams of you were my sweetest place
Time's taken it's toll but I'm alright to go
It's my last night, I thought you should know
When they flip the switch I hope all I can see
Is you in my arms dancing with me
In this cold world I did all I could do
I never had love but the closest was you
It's the last night that I see your face
Daydreams of you were my sweetest place
Time's taken its toll but i'm alright to go
It's my last night and I thought you should know
It's my last night, I thought you should know
I wanted to write but didn't know if I should
So many years now that I lost what is real
But I still remember how you made me feel
From boys home to boys home until I was eighteen
Sent me to prison, they said I was mean
And as young as I was, I could handle my own
The men that I dealt with I left cold stone
It's the last night that I see your face
Daydreams of you were my sweetest place
Time's taken it's toll but I'm alright to go
It's my last night and I thought you should know
Writing these words don't come easy to me
But I've run out of time and soon I'll be free
And you were the only one I ever had
The only bright spot in a life that went bad
The years they have past, but I got through them all
With the wallet size picture of you on my wall
And the way that you kissed me without regret
It's something my heart will never forget
It's the last night that I see your face
Daydreams of you were my sweetest place
Time's taken it's toll but I'm alright to go
It's my last night, I thought you should know
When they flip the switch I hope all I can see
Is you in my arms dancing with me
In this cold world I did all I could do
I never had love but the closest was you
It's the last night that I see your face
Daydreams of you were my sweetest place
Time's taken its toll but i'm alright to go
It's my last night and I thought you should know
It's my last night, I thought you should know
