Your Letter
Love's Echo: A Melodic Tale of Longing and Redemption
Lyrics
I read your letter yesterday
I received and read your letter yesterday.
If fell between the covers and my bare skin
The letter ended up between the sheets and touched my bare skin.
It fell between my crying
The letter became intertwined with my tears.
And my longing for you
It became entangled with my deep yearning for you.
I loved this one too long
I loved this relationship for an extended period.
This one much too much
I loved you intensely, perhaps too much.
Sometimes I gave just enough of myself
Sometimes, I offered just the right amount of myself.
But most times nothing at all
Most times, I gave nothing at all.
And you've been gone too long
You've been absent for an extended period.
You know I love you the best
You should know that I love you the most.
You call me crazy, that's how you won my heart
You may think I'm crazy, but that's how you captured my heart.
'Cause you were half crazy too
Because you, too, were partially crazy.
I read your letter again today
I read your letter again today.
Out loud and to myself
I read it aloud and to myself.
It gave me back my sanity
The letter restored my sanity.
I didn't feel so alone
It made me feel less alone.
Won't be too soon
I can't wait for your return.
Not like the night
This anticipation is different from the night.
Not like the night on a summer's day
It's not like a summer's night.
Can't wait to see you step across the room, empty room
I eagerly await seeing you walk across the room, even if it's empty.
Save you and me
Our collective well-being is important.
I feel your touches in your letters
I sense your presence in your letters.
But it's not half as good as you touching me
However, it doesn't compare to the joy of your physical touch.
In real
I crave the real experience of you touching me.
