It's amazing
|
What words can do
|
Give your eyes a sparkle
|
Turn you inside out
|
You washed in those words
|
You sewed them in the lining of your heart
|
They slowly seeped into your blood
|
And ran the course of your body
|
|
Faster than any drug
|
Faster than lightning
|
They ran to your feet
|
Your steps were solid
|
And they ran on to your hands
|
Your fingers weren't afraid to touch
|
And they ran to your lips
|
And they spoke so soft
|
Ever so softly to me
|
|
What was in that letter
|
That calls to me, to me, to me
|
What was in that letter
|
Straight to the very heart of me
|
What was in that letter
|
That haunts me from this distance
|
What was in that letter
|
So sure
|
So persistent
|
|
Why don't you open it
|
Read it again
|
Read it over again to you and me
|
Why don't you let every last line
|
Sink into our little minds
|
Read it again
|
Tear the curtain down
|
Pull the altar to the ground
|
|
What was in that letter
|
That calls to the soul of me
|
What was in that letter
|
Tenderly, sweetly
|
What was in that letter
|
That haunts me from this distance
|
|
What was in that letter?
