The Letter Lyrics

Macy Gray

All I ever wanted was some love and peace and harmony I could dance in the raw in the sun underneath the stars When I walk over to my money tree Ain't nobody there tryin' to take from me When they ask, "Are you truly free?" I'd say, "Yes, truly"
But down here in reality Everybody knows there ain't no such thing And it's clear, it's obviously This is not the place I'm supposed to be
On and on and on I've searched What I'm lookin' for is not here on earth I can't stand, I can't take no more So I know that I gotta go
So long everybody, Mama don't be sad for me Life was a heartache and now I am finally free Don't know where I'm headed, hope I see you someday soon So long everybody, I have gone beyond the moon
All I ever wanted, love and the peace and the harmony Just to be, to live and shine, when I get ready I up and fly And I can't remember none of the things that I want to forget It's the best satisfaction no less, ask if I'm free and I'll say, "Oh yes"
But down here in reality Everybody knows there ain't no such thing And it's clear, it's obviously This is not the place I'm supposed to be
On and on and on I've searched What I'm lookin' for is not here on earth I can't stand, I can't take no more So I know that I gotta go
So long everybody, Mama don't be sad for me Life was a heartache and now I am finally free Don't know where I'm headed, hope I see you someday soon So long everybody, I have gone beyond the moon
Before I do, just one more look at you It's worth the stay, but I'll meet you later at that better place
All I ever wanted was, all I ever wanted was All I ever wanted, all I ever wanted was
So long everybody, Mama don't be sad for me Life was a heartache and now I am finally free Don't know where I'm headed, hope I see you someday soon So long everybody, I have gone beyond the moon
So long everybody, Mama don't be sad for me Life was a heartache and now I am finally free Don't know where I'm headed, hope I see you someday soon So long everybody, I have gone beyond the moon
So long everybody, Mama don't be sad for me
