The Letter

Album: The Very Best of Loretta and Conway Durasi: 2:50
[00:03.25]Today, I saw her for the first time since she left me
[00:08.45]And she said I've got a favor to ask of you
[00:11.68]And I said all right, what is it?
[00:15.52]And she said you know you always told me
[00:18.62]If I ever needed any help just to ask and you'd help me
[00:23.83]And I said, yeah, I remember
[00:27.58]And she said, well, there's this fellow that I've been goin' with
[00:31.43]And I just found out that he's been slippin' around on me
[00:35.50]And I thought that maybe if you'd write me a letter
[00:39.52]And tell me that you miss me and that you still love me
[00:44.03]That he might find it and he might read it and
[00:47.58]It might make him jealous and I might not lose him
[00:51.97]And I said, Ok I'll write you the letter
[01:02.05]Dear sweetheart, just a line to let you know
[01:07.09]That I still think about you and I still love you so
[01:13.83]I remember your kisses and everytime you held me tight
[01:20.58]But most of all I remember the good times that we had each night
[01:28.86]Dear sweetheart, if you're lonely, just let me know
[01:34.25]For you're still my one and only and I still love you so
[01:39.83]I'm gonna close for now sweetheart and try to go on without you
[01:46.85]But don't forget I'll always love you, no matter what you do
[01:55.94]So now I've written the letter the way you asked me to
[02:00.20]And I hope it makes him jealous, the way you wanted it to
[02:05.56]For I've told you I still love you and I want to be with you
[02:11.57]But you know sweetheart the saddest part
[02:16.01]I'm not pretending for I still do
[02:36.58]🎵
