Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm gonna sit right down and write myself a letter
And make believe that it came from you
I'm gonna write words oh-so sweet
They're gonna knock me off my feet
A lotta kisses on the bottom
I'll be glad I got 'em
[Verse 2]
I'm gonna smile and say, "I hope you're feelin' better"
And close with love the way you do
I'm gonna sit right down and write myself a letter
And make believe that it came from you
[Verse 3]
I'll be glad I got 'em
I'm gonna smile and say, "I hope you're feelin' better"
And then I'll close with love the way you do
I'm gonna sit down, write myself a letter
And make believe it came
Though I know it's not the same
I'll make believe it came from you
