Last Letter - Katharine McPhee

I have a few words in defense of my youth
My regrets will fill 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 in my mind
Though I left the past
We don't leave it behind
But I learned
And now I know
That 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'
Till 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

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
