Last Letter Home Lyrics

DROPKICK MURPHYS LYRICS"Last Letter Home"Hello there my dearest love
Today I write to you about our sons
The boys start school today
They're the spitting image of you in every wayHey son it's Dad
I hope this letter finds you well out of harm's way
We saw the news today it frightened your Mom
Now all she does is pray[Chorus:]
If I lead will you follow?
Will you follow if I lead?Hey Melissa it's me don't be afraid
I'm in good hands I'm gonna be home soon
It's time to watch the children grow up
I wanna be more than a voice on the phoneThanks Ma I got your package today
I love "The Fields Of Athenry"
I swear I want 'em to play that song on the pipes
At my funeral when I die[Chorus]I stand alone in the distance
And the foreground slowly moves[Chorus]"We regret to inform you that on January 28th Sgt. Andrew
Farrar died while serving his country in the Al-Anbar province
of Iraq words cannot convey our sorrow"[Chorus]When there's nothing on the horizon

You've got nothing left to proveIf I lead will you follow?
