Written letters carried up by rising balloons I know that you'll get this someday Everybody tells me that it's time to move on But I still have to write this letter
Soldier of the human race Do you even know that you're gone..?
Disappointed couldn't call you for a few months After what you'd done nothing was left You disappeared from off the face One day wondering I called mother said you were dead
Before you left I wish I'd said All this time I wasn't angry Despite mistakes you had to make Long ago my love forgave you Not soon enough for you to know
Firefighters on the run-on Couldn't save the kids on time
Not soon enough for you to know
