Last Letter Home

[Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] If I lead, will you follow? Will you follow if I lead? [Verse 3] 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 [Verse 4] 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 [Chorus] 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? [Bridge] "We regret to inform you that on January 28th, Sgt. Andrew Farrar died while serving his country in the Al-Anbar province of Iraq. Words cannot convey our sorrow." [Chorus] 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?
