JT Music, JR Wyatt - Dear Ellie (Take Care, Take Heed) lyrics

Well, the darkness takes up too much
Of that empty hearted place
Forced to live a life of
Just surviving every day
And I'm sorry that I wasn't better for you
And I never really said it, but darling
I adored you

And I couldn't save my life
But I knew that I could yours
And if I did it all again, well
I'd probably stay the course
'Cause I couldn't bring myself to be
The bearer of a death
Of a life that hadn't had the
Time to live it'self out yet

So take care, take heed take the best of me
Forge ahead, Godspeed take care, take heed

I left unfinished business
But it always was that way
And I did the best I could
By you throughout my final days
There are so many things we left unsaid
Things that I can see from here
That dance inside your head

But just be careful of the path you
Take and always watch your back
Try your best to make up for
What that cold world lacks
Revenge will rip you up and take it's toll
And I'd hate to see it tear
Apart the kindness in your soul

So take care, take heed take the best of me
Forge ahead, Godspeed take care, take heed

A life lived brutally for scarce immunity
Tried to protect you from that world

It may be hard to take
But don't let your spirit break
I've always got you, baby girl

So take care, take heed take the best of me
Forge ahead, Godspeed take care, take heed
