A Letter To My Mama - Vince Gill

作词：Vince Gill/Dean Dillon

作曲：Vince Gill/Dean Dillon

Oh I need to write a letter

Put it down in black and white

No a phone call just won't cut it

Not the way I feel tonight

A letter to my mama from the bottom of my heart

I'm sorry is a real good place to start

I'm sorry I was selfish

Let's chalk it up to youth

I got too old to need you

That's just running from the truth

I'm sorry things didn't work out for you and my old man

Sometimes life don't turn out like you plan

Looking back I wonder how you ever pulled us through

I can't imagine walking in your shoes

If I could stop this pen from shaking

I'd write these words down too

No one in this world I love like you

Oh I've written down the memories

Of these sixty-some-odd years

Trying hard to just say

Thank you as I wipe away the tears

I hear my grandson call me so I guess I better go

Could never pay you back the love I owe

Oh I finished up the letter

Put it down in black and white

No a phone call just won't cut it

Not the way I feel tonight

A letter to my mama from the bottom of my heart

The very bottom of my heart
