Conway Twitty - The Letter lyrics

rate me

Today, I saw her for the first time since she left me<br />

And she said I've got a favor to ask of you<br />

And I said all right, what is it?<br />

And she said you know you always told me<br />

If I ever needed any help just to ask and you'd help me<br />

And I said, yeah, I remember<br />

And she said, well, there's this fellow that I've been goin' with<br />

And I just found out that he's been slippin' around on me<br />

And I thought that maybe if you'd write me a letter<br />

And tell me that you miss me and that you still love me<br />

That he might find it and he might read it and<br />

It might make him jealous and I might not lose him<br />

And I said, Ok I'll write you the letter.<br />

<br />

Dear sweetheart, just a line to let you know<br />

That I still think about you and I still love you so<br />

I remember your kisses and everytime you held me tight<br />

But most of all I remember the good times that we had each night.<br />

<br />

Dear sweetheart, if you're lonely, just let me know<br />

For you're still my one and only and I still love you so<br />

I'm gonna close for now sweetheart and try to go on without you<br />

But don't forget I'll always love you, no matter what you do.<br />

<br />

So now I've written the letter the way you asked me to<br />

And I hope it makes him jealous, the way you wanted it to<br />

For I've told you I still love you and I want to be with you.<br />

<br />

But you know sweetheart the saddest part<br />

I'm not pretending for I still do...
