I hold this letter in my hand
A plea, a petition, a kind of prayer
I hope it does as I have planned
Losing her again is more than I can bear
I kiss the cold, white envelope
I press my lips against her name
Two hundred words. we live in hope
The sky hangs heavy with rain
Love letter love letter
Go get her go get her
Love letter love letter
Go tell her go tell her
A wicked wind whips up the hill
A handful of hopeful words
I love her and I always will
The sky is ready to burst
Said something I did not mean to say
Said something I did not mean to say
Said something I did not mean to say
It all came out the wrong way
Love letter love letter
Go get her go get her
Love letter love letter
Go tell her go tell her
Rain your kisses down upon me
Rain your kisses down in storms
And for all who'll come before me
In your slowly fading forms
I'm going out of my mind
Will leave me standing in
The rain with a letter and a prayer
Whispered on the wind
Come back to me
Come back to me
Oh baby please come back to me
A plea, a petition, a kind of prayer
I hope it does as I have planned
Losing her again is more than I can bear
I kiss the cold, white envelope
I press my lips against her name
Two hundred words. we live in hope
The sky hangs heavy with rain
Love letter love letter
Go get her go get her
Love letter love letter
Go tell her go tell her
A wicked wind whips up the hill
A handful of hopeful words
I love her and I always will
The sky is ready to burst
Said something I did not mean to say
Said something I did not mean to say
Said something I did not mean to say
It all came out the wrong way
Love letter love letter
Go get her go get her
Love letter love letter
Go tell her go tell her
Rain your kisses down upon me
Rain your kisses down in storms
And for all who'll come before me
In your slowly fading forms
I'm going out of my mind
Will leave me standing in
The rain with a letter and a prayer
Whispered on the wind
Come back to me
Come back to me
Oh baby please come back to me

Love Letter Love letter
Go get her Go get her
Love Letter Love letter
Go tell her Go tell her
. . . he is sending it and hopes it will do all the talking for him without talking, it will, he hopes . . .ultimately bring her back to him
he loves her but said some things he shouldn't have said
How does his grief and longing transform in outbreak of her kisses, in the rain metaphor? Poetic freedom, sure, but somehow I feel like something is missing. Usually on my part with this author...
Then there is sorrowful understanding that the emotions are not mutual, and the letter can't fix what was not the cause of her scuttle: "all who'll come before me". Now, what about "slowly fading forms"? I just can't make anything from it...
Please, help me deepen this already strong and gentle audio memory of someone, thanks.
