Kele
Letter to My Son
[Verse 1]
I found myself
At the point where we kissed first
On a rooftop
Overlooking the East London mosque
They say, they say, they say, they say
"You can't go around breaking young girls' hearts"
I say, I say, I say, I say
"Just a casual, easy thing"

[Chorus]
And you looked so right
In that red dress

[Verse 2]
Oh, how I'd love
To be a rock for you
To be anything
You could rely on
So I'll try, I'll try, I'll try, I'll try
But I'll get caught out
So we'll try, we'll try, we'll try, we'll try
But we forget the lines
Forget the lines

[Chorus]
And you looked so wanton
In the back of the car
Like you could start
A hundred wars
[Bridge]
See what trouble wicked thoughts cause
By the bedroom door, the kitchen floor
I tried, I tried, I tried
I tried, I tried, I tried
Oh, Marlena, I'm too young
To be the father to our son
I tried, I tried, I tried
I tried, I tried, I tried

[Outro]
Forgive me, Oscar
Forgive me, Oscar
Forgive me, Oscar
Forgive me, Oscar
Forgive me, Oscar
