| I found me some space set apart from the madness
|
| To write down some thoughts all about this life of mine
|
| A few simple truths all about the joy and sadness
|
| And the mystery of how the two can intertwine
|
| By the time you’re reading this, you’ll be almost grown
|
| And I may only be a memory
|
| Perhaps these stains of ink will help you understand
|
| The shape of my heart, the heart of His plan
|
| This is my letter, my letter to the future
|
| And when you open this you’ll know what’s in my heart
|
| If I have my say, you’ll find your way
|
| This letter will open up the door
|
| Innocent child lying soft in your cradle
|
| You’re born to a world beyond your control
|
| I live for the chance you could lead the resistance
|
| And signal the change by the goodness in your soul
|
| By the time you’re reading this, the world won’t be the same
|
| This day will only be a memory
|
| You are the miracle of promises fulfilled
|
| You could calm the angry sea by the power of your will
|
| This is my letter, my letter to the future
|
| And when you open this you’ll know what’s in my heart
|
| If I have my say, you’ll find your way
|
| This letter will open up the door
|
| I tremble as I’m writing this for so much is at stake
|
| Your chance to change the course of history
|
| I’m looking to the sky to find a star to wish upon
|
| To dreamers like you, I pass the baton
|
| This is my letter, letter to the future
|
| And when you open this you’ll know what’s in my heart
|
| If I have my say, you’ll find your way, it’s ok
|
| This letter will open up the door
|
| Open up the door
|
| This is my letter
|
| Letter to the future |
