Last Love Letter
Unveiling Farewell: Alison Krauss & Union Station's Last Love Letter
Lyrics
I'm writing my last love letter
I am composing my final expression of love.
And for reasons now, I don't know where to start
For unspecified reasons, I find it challenging to begin.
Seems so many times I've written down, ''I love you.''
I've frequently written the words "I love you" in the past.
Well I hope this time I can get that through your heart.
This time, I hope to convey that sentiment to your heart successfully.
Only fools will go on and keep talkin' to a wall
Engaging in futile conversations with someone unresponsive.
But I can't fool around forever
I cannot continue this fruitless communication indefinitely.
And if stone is the wall that you've built around your heart
If your heart is encased in a metaphorical stone wall,
Then I guess it's goodbye in this letter.
Then, regrettably, this letter marks our farewell.
And maybe I was wrong to ever think that you could love me
Perhaps it was a mistake to believe you could reciprocate my love.
I was hoping you just couldn't find the time
I had hoped you would eventually make time for our relationship.
Have my efforts been in vain with pen and paper?
Are my written expressions of love in vain?
Did you ever care, did I ever cross your mind?
Did you ever care for me, or did I occupy your thoughts?
Only fools will go on and keep talkin' to a wall
Persisting in futile communication is foolish.
But I can't fool around forever
I cannot continue this aimless interaction indefinitely.
And if stone is the wall that you've built around your heart
If your heart is guarded by an impenetrable barrier,
Then I guess it's goodbye in this letter.
Then, sadly, this letter signifies our parting.
In this letter.
This is the final farewell expressed in this letter.
In this letter...
Reiterated confirmation of farewell within this letter.
