Last Letter Home - Dropkick Murphys

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 way

Hey 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

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 phone

Thanks 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

(If I lead will you follow will you follow if I lead)

I stand alone in the distance

And the foreground slowly moves

(If I lead will you follow

will you follow if I lead)

We regret to inform you

that on january twenty-eight th sgt andrew

Farrar died while serving

his country in the alanbar

Provinceof iraq words

cannot convey our sorrow

(If I lead will you follow

will you follow if I lead)

When there's nothing on the horizon

You've got nothing left to prove

If I lead will you follow
