I Write a Little

Alabama · Livin' Lovin' Rockin' Rollin': The 25th Anniversar [2006]

(R.Owen-D.Cook-R.Rogers)



(Spoken)

Military mail call....

Wilsom.... Gail... Farrow... Miller... McCan...

Decarlo... Michaels... Harold... Nelson...



I lay out some paper, I take out my pen

Turn on my table-lamp and here I go again

It's time to write a letter, I'm in the mood tonight

Gotta find a way to tell you how I feel inside.



So I write a little and I cry a little

It's so hard to find a way to say goodbye a little

But somewhere in the middle, my emotions interfere

So I write a little and cry a little tear

And I die a little wishing you were here.



--- Instrumental ---



God I miss you, can't be with you

I would kiss you oh, so good

'Cause you're my only cure for lonely

I'd call if I could.



So I write a little and I cry a little

It's so hard to find a way to say goodbye a little

Somewhere in the middle, my emotions interfere

So I write a little and cry a little tear

And I die a little wishing you were here.



Oh, I die a little wishing you were here.



Wishing you were here

I'm writing and wishing you were here

I write a little and cry a little tear.



I'm writing and wishing you were here...
