Dear loved one, please listen
This might be the last chance I get
I’m sorry I left you
I’m living in a world of regret
Don’t cry if you can hear me
I never meant to hurt you dearly
I’m so wrong sincerely
Don’t stop, take life seriously
Chorus
These are the last words I’m ever gonna get to say to you
When everything falls away from you
Take these words and know the world is not worth leaving
There’s so much I’ve done wrong
Since I left it hit me so strong
Take my hand and let’s walk through
All the times I’ve lied and hurt you
Those people, please love them
Don’t hate them, we’re not above them
You can have everything but have nothing
Listen I’ve got to tell you something
Chorus
Last words I’ll ever really get to say to you
So listen very carefully to what I’m saying
Life is more than just the games you’re playing
If there was ever one thing
I could ever get across to you
I’d tell you not to say the things you do
And tell my mother that I love her too
No matter what life pulls you through (No)
You’ve got what it takes to make it through
And if I was you I’d get on my knees and pray
Thank God in the morning for another day
Cause these are...
Chorus
Life is more than just the games you’re playing
