"The Letter" lyrics

"The Letter"

Dear, my dear
I fear that something's wrong
It's clear to me that something's gone with the wind
Dropped like a pin
Oh no
I write to you, it's true, from my kitchen floor
They do
My tears
They rain and poor like the wine does every night, oh no

But it's too late now
I hope that you don't read it
Just because I wrote it down
Doesn't mean I mean it
And I don't wanna cry no more
And I don't know what I'm crying for
There's a letter at your door
And I hope you don't read it

Dear, my dear
A year since you came along
It's weird
I feel like I've known you longer than that
No looking back, oh no
I write because
We're lost and we can't be found
We're not
We're not gonna turn it round with a wish or with kiss, oh no

But it's too late now
I hope that you don't read it
Just because I wrote it down
Doesn't mean I mean it
And I don't wanna cry no more
And I don't know what I'm crying for

Burn my words
Oh, Lord
What have I done?
My foolish tongue
And I don't know what I wrote it for
And I'm crying as you close the door

But it's too late now
Hmm
Just because I wrote it down
Doesn't mean I mean it
And I don't wanna cry no more
And I don't know what I'm crying for

There's a letter at your door
And I hope you don't read it
