Letter Home Lyrics

[Verse]
You're the only girl that I have ever wanted
Every other girl is trying to be you
My mama says that I should write you letters
But I think you're with other dudes

Take my hand, you'll like it
You don't even have to call
Yes, I've had some alcohol, I'm sorry
Take my hand
You don't even have to call
You're somewhere out there after all

[Outro]
You're all I ever wanted
You're all I ever wanted
You're all I ever wanted

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

Gambino strips down the instrumental to “All The Shine,” leaving just the violins, to address an ex that he still has feelings for in a poignant interlude.
