The Last Letter
Words & music: michael w. smith and wayne kirkpatrick
Sitting alone up in your empty room
In the stillness of the night
Where all the many dreams that used to carry you
Are no longer in sight
You put your feelings down in black and white
A sad, disturbing reply
That you dont really want to face another night
So youre saying goodbye
But do you know that youre saying goodbye
To a lifetime
Chorus:
Well, Ive got to tell you theres another way
To be free to be complete
But, youve got to make it thru another day
And deny your own defeat (dont give in)
And Im here to tell you theres another way
To consume a hungry heart
All the love you need is just a prayer away
Let it in to where you are
Youve made it to the edge of seventeen
Thinking now youve reached the end of the line
But theres so much of life that you have never seen
Now you wont have the time
You say that you dont hear the music play
So youre ready to give up the dance
Now that nothing really matters anyway
Oh, you give up your chance
But do you know that you give up your chance
At a lifetime
Chorus:
Well, Ive got to tell you theres another way
To be free--to be complete
But youve got to make it thru another day
And deny your own defeat (dont give in)
And Im here to tell you theres another way
To consume a hungry heart
Jesus is waiting just a prayer away
Let him in to where you are
You put your feelings down in black and white
A sad, disturbing reply
That you dont really want to face another night
So youre saying goodbye
But do you know that youre saying goodbye
To a lifetime
Chorus
