Katharine McPhee - Last Letter lyrics

I have a few words in defense of my youth
My guts are feeling an ocean or two
I was young
I didn't know what I would stumble into
I had a lot on my mind
And there were so many rules
It makes a girl crazy, makes you break a few

And there I go again
Acting like it's my fault
When you're to blame

It makes me happy to use you a little
Just to use you a little to write this song
It's the very last letter to an old lover
To say I'm glad you're gone

I've got snapshots of things on my mind
Though I love the past
We don't leave it behind
But, I learned and now I know
And I don’t need you comin' around
One thing I should probably say
I got over it all, and I surrendered the pain

That's the thing about mistakes
You never see 'em comin' 'Til it's too late

It makes me happy to use you a little
Just to use you a little to write this song
It's the very last letter to an old lover
To say I'm glad

Sacrifice my happiness
It's not enough to know
I'm better off the way it is

It makes me happy to use you a little
Just to use you a little to write this song
It's the very last letter to an old lover
To say I'm glad it makes me happy
To use you a little just to use you a little
To write this song it's the very last letter
To an old lover to say I'm glad you're gone
