Vivi Abernathy - Dear Future Me Lyrics

Dear Future Me, how you doing?
What's the weather like these days?
I'm here writing you a melody
In case you forgot
What the younger you was like
A dreamer looking for a trail to blaze

Hey Future me, did you ever learn
To play that old guitar?
Let it take you 'round the world
With all its charm? When you're alone
Do you ever think of home
And wonder how you ever got that far?

And I hope you still remember
The Way Grandma could sing
And the feel of grandpa's garden dirt
Underneath your feet
And I hope you found the answers
To what life is all about
But I guess I'll have to wait
'Til I find out...

From Future Me, can't imagine
All the changes that you've seen
Is our brother playin' in the major leagues?
Cause he was good
Hey, how's the neighborhood?
Is our name still carved out in that willow tree?

And I pray you finally met someone
That dad could be proud of
And you still hug on our mama
Just to let her know she's loved
And I hope you found the answers
To what life is all about
But I guess I'll have to wait
'Til I find out...

I know you don't need lessons
From a distant memory
But I sure hope we turned into
Everything we said we'd be
And if you feel lost or broken
There's a compass in this song
Don't hesitate to let it lead you home

So Future me, did you ever get
A little taste of fame?
Do I have a bunch of kids
And what's their names? I bet I do
Crazy just like me and you
I guess we have the both of us to blame

And I know you won't forget the way
We all would laugh and sing
Around the table on a Sunday
We would make those rafters ring
And I hope you found the answers to
What life is all about
But I guess I'll have to wait
'Til I find out...
From Future Me
Dear Future Me
