The Gourds

Last Letter

If yer low and feelin down

When yer lost and tossed around

You can go and see the man

I know I couldn’t be that strong

Yer last letter was that long

And it took me by surprise

When I read through bleary eyes

Now everything’s all gone

Now everything’s all wrong

When they all deliver their packages of tears

And it makes you different and threads you through fears

You can go and see the man

You can go and buy another ring

Yer last letter was lonely one and it made me wanna cry

It made me feel like the only one

And it made me wanna grieve

Now everything’s all wrong

Now everything’s all gone

Yer last letter was lonely one

And it broke me all to tears

I couldn’t make the words out all that well

It was just enough to tell

Now everything’s all wrong

Now everything’s all gone
