Yesterday I wrote a letter, Read it softly to the wind. Then I asked God to address it, And to place it in your hand. When it's opened, you will hear me Whisper words I should have said As you listen, I'll be waiting 'Til the final word is read Love, I hope you still remember How you love to hear my cries; How the fire grows from the ember When I look into your eyes. Can you listen to my heartbeat? Can you hear between my tears? Do you feel the way I love you? Baby, let me make it clear. When I reach out in the darkness Seems I taste you in the air As I lay my head upon you I remember dreams we shared. Think I feel your arms around me And your voice is in my ear Then I burrow even deeper 'Gainst a heartbeat I can't hear. So, I say a prayer to guide you To the arms that hold you tight And they're opened wide to keep you Close beside me through the night. Whisper lightly that I love you And I hear your soft reply. As I’m drifting off you tell me "Oh my darling, so do I."’” Yesterday I wrote a letter, Read it softly to the wind. Now I know that God delivered It directly to your hand. When you opened it, I heard you Whisper words I longed to hear I could barely feel my breathing For I knew that you were near. Honey, do you still remember How I love to hear you laugh? Do you hear the songs I'm singing Like a broken phonograph? I still listen to your heartbeat, I can hear between your tears. Do you feel the way I love you? Baby, let me make it clear. When you reach out in the darkness I am always lying there Waiting for your head upon me For the softness of your hair. So I wrap my arms around you And I whisper in your ear Then you burrow even deeper 'Gainst a heart that's always near. I don't need a prayer to guide me To the arms that hold me tight For they're always wide to keep me Close beside you through the night. And I whisper that I love you Just to hear your soft reply. As you're drifting off you tell me "Oh my darling, so do I."’”
