Hat On, Drinking Wine - Last Letter Lyrics

Ed Whalen/Matt Robert

Wish I had something to hang onto
when I feel I’m grasping at the air
she said it’s not the things you miss most
they're the things you thought you had that were never really there

so write me a note saying you know that I’m here
save me a moment so I won’t disappear tonight
Ill fold it away in a pocket so I know I’m not alone
it helps me make it through the daylight

And I take the summer air cause it reminds me of you
and leave behind my winters and list of things to do
I’ll walk out and try to find that last bit of blue
that I once had in a letter from you.


I’ve waited ‘til the end of Wednesday
Saved things that should’ve’ died
Flown into cities that never stood a chance
Of being loved in your eyes

So come on back to Boston
Come on back where we belong
Come on and dance with me down on the avenue
Come on and sing me one more song

I’m sick of the waiting
I’m so sick of you
I’m sick of all this freedom and life in this zoo
And maybe when the rain is emptied and through
I’ll find that last…..

Flying through darkness, star lights and tail lights
everything is beautiful tonight
flying home from you, thoughts winding in and out
like a red-blurred photograph you took before the fading

I could’ve been perfect
I could’ve been you
I could’ve been somebody’s somebody new
Just like you

Sad eyes captured of you
Long before the goodbyes stood so still
There was me and there was you
