Nat Stuckey - Letter to Shirley lyrics

Oh Shirley I love you you must believe I do Cause Shirley I need to have and hold the both of you Well Shirley I'm writing this in a hotel downtown I'm sure you remember the place See I came back in the town to see our new baby today And you slammed the door at my face Now Shirley I know you've got every right to despise every breath that I take But I'm praying there's still enough love in your heart To forgive me that one big mistake Cause Shirley Shirley I love you... You know I have to admit that when I first heard the news That my first thought was I had to run You see Shirley I was too far along on my way to success To be chained to a wife and a son So I kept my name and you have to blame and you port with head held high But I guess now all the while you were wearing a smile You wanted to break down and cry Shirley I love you... I just jumped on that train and it took me away And I well I thought I left the trouble behind But I found out in a while with each pa**ing mile what I really had left was my mind So I'm back here to stay with you to have me or not It's all up to you Shirley in your heart All the heartaches you've had everything that's gone bad I'll have to live with if we stay apart Cause Shirley I love you...
