Letter From My Darling - Solomon Burke

This is the sweetest letter

That I have ever read

It was written by my sweetheart

And this is what she said

(it reads,) 'my dearest darling

Still love you faithfully

And I hope these few lines

Find you still in love with me.'

The more I read this letter

The more it touches my heart

Right here she says don’t forget her

Although we’re miles apart

She closes out by saying

'I think I’ll go to bed

So I’ll kiss this letter, darling

But I wish it was you instead.'
