Letters to the Past

Intro

Clean electric guitar with soft drums building underneath

Verse 1

I saw your picture the other day

Stopped me right there, didn't know what to say

It's funny how a memory can still hurt

Even after all this time apart

I told myself I was doing fine

That leaving was the only way to survive

But every road I take somehow leads back

To the moment when I watched you pack

Pre-Chorus

And I know I can't change what I've done

Can't go back and become someone new

But if I had one more chance

I'd spend it making things right with you

Chorus

So let it rain down on me

Wash away the things I couldn't see

All the words I never said

All the damage I left behind instead

Let it rain down tonight

Cover up this regret inside

I know I lost what I couldn't hold

But some memories never let go

So let it rain down on me

Verse 2

I heard you're happy, I hope that's true

I hope someone gives you what I couldn't give you

You deserve every good thing in life

Even if I'm not standing by your side

I still remember the way you smiled

The little things that made it all worthwhile

Now I'm just another name you know

Another chapter you had to close

Pre-Chorus

And maybe someday I'll understand

Why some things slip right through our hands

But tonight I'm still holding on

To the love I had when you were gone

Chorus

So let it rain down on me

Wash away the things I couldn't see

All the words I never said

All the damage I left behind instead

Let it rain down tonight

Cover up this regret inside

I know I lost what I couldn't hold

But some memories never let go

So let it rain down on me

Instrumental Break

Heavy emotional guitars enter, lead guitar melody over powerful drums and bass

Bridge

If you ever wonder if I cared

If you ever wonder if I was there

The answer's written in every scar

You were the best thing I ever had

I don't need you to come back home

I know some roads we walk alone

But I'll always wish you the best

Even if I'm the one who's left

Final Chorus

So let it rain down on me

Let it wash away who I used to be

All the mistakes I can't undo

All the nights I spent missing you

Let it rain down tonight

Help me finally say goodbye

I know I lost what I couldn't hold

But I'll carry the love we used to know

So let it rain down on me

Outro

Soft acoustic guitar with fading electric guitar

Let it rain

Let it rain down

Maybe someday I'll finally let you go
