[Verse 1]
I hold this letter in my hand
A plea, a petition, a kind of prayer
Hope it does as I have planned
Losing her again is more than I can bear
Kiss the cold, white envelope
Press my lips against her name
Two hundred words
We live in hope
The sky hangs heavy with rain
[Verse 2]
Love letter
Love letter
Go get her
Go get her
Love letter
Love letter
Go tell her
Go tell her
[Verse 3]
A wicked wind whips up the hill
A handful of hopeful words
I love her and I always will
The sky is ready to burst
Said somethin' I did not mean to say
Said somethin' I did not mean to say
Said somethin' I did not mean to say
It all came out the wrong way
[Verse 4]
Love letter
Love letter
Go get her
Go get her
Love letter
Love letter
Go tell her
Go tell her
[Verse 5]
Rain your kisses down upon me
Rain your kisses down in storms
And for all who'll come before me
In your slowly fading forms
I'm going out of my mind
Will it leave me standing
In the rain with a letter and a prayer
Whispered on the wind
[Verse 6]
Come back to me
Come back to me
Oh, baby
Please come back to me
