๐ Lyrics
I know there's supposed to be a soul in my heart
From too much tragedy
Does it always have to be that way?
We had our ups and downs
Still I care greatly
And I hope you feel the same way that I do
Hope you make it
Hope you make it on your own
Hope you find the direction you need to go
Though our ups and downs were frequent and intense
Like when I wrote that letter
It said I love you to death
You know our tragic stories are the best damn ones to tell
If you hear this song some time from now
I hope it finds you well
Remember when I wrote that song for you some months ago
It was a sad, sappy affair
A wretched lonely mess now laid to rest
So here's this one instead to make it clear
Hope you make it on your own
Hope you find the direction you need to go
Though our ups and downs were frequent and intense
Like when I wrote that letter
It said I love you to death
You know our tragic stories are the best damn ones to tell
If you hear this song some time from now
I hope it finds you well
Remember when I drove up to your New England town
Stayed in bed for three whole days
And I warned you even then
I could not be the person you wanted
Sometime in the future we'll meet again
Smile and catch up
We'll make a day of it
And it'll feel like it's yesterday again, at least for a second
Hope you make it on your own
Hope you find the direction you need to go
Though our ups and downs were frequent and intense
Like when I wrote that letter
It said I love you to death
You know our tragic stories are the best damn ones to tell
If you hear this song some time from now
I hope it finds you well
And as far as this goes
I know I have no regrets
We chose our own directions
And I chose west
I chose west
But I'm sure I'll see you again
From too much tragedy
Does it always have to be that way?
We had our ups and downs
Still I care greatly
And I hope you feel the same way that I do
Hope you make it
Hope you make it on your own
Hope you find the direction you need to go
Though our ups and downs were frequent and intense
Like when I wrote that letter
It said I love you to death
You know our tragic stories are the best damn ones to tell
If you hear this song some time from now
I hope it finds you well
Remember when I wrote that song for you some months ago
It was a sad, sappy affair
A wretched lonely mess now laid to rest
So here's this one instead to make it clear
Hope you make it on your own
Hope you find the direction you need to go
Though our ups and downs were frequent and intense
Like when I wrote that letter
It said I love you to death
You know our tragic stories are the best damn ones to tell
If you hear this song some time from now
I hope it finds you well
Remember when I drove up to your New England town
Stayed in bed for three whole days
And I warned you even then
I could not be the person you wanted
Sometime in the future we'll meet again
Smile and catch up
We'll make a day of it
And it'll feel like it's yesterday again, at least for a second
Hope you make it on your own

If you hear this song some time from now
I hope it finds you well
And as far as this goes
I know I have no regrets
We chose our own directions
And I chose west
I chose west
But I'm sure I'll see you again
