Lyrics:
I hope this letter finds you well
there are things in life that are inevitable
I apologize for every bad thing that I said and all the doubts
Two roads diverged in my head
I could not travel both, I’m sorry
I will leave my fear behind meOne day something changed
I’m not sure what it was. One thinking?It was a sunny day
It was a perfect day my friend! so now!
All the little things are beautiful
A simple smell makes me happy
Reminds me of childhood memories
Barefoot walking in the sand
Once againIn the laughter of the kids
I never feel alone
There’s a new drug for you
That is called loveSpread this good dream
