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
