Letter After Letter

(Glen Campbell - Jerry Goldis)



Words put down on paper just don't seem to say

All the things I'm tryin' to say to you

Why is it that I'm writing the meaning slips away

And the lines just don't say what I want them to.



I've torn up letter after letter till the basket overflows

And still can't seem to find the simple way

To tell you that I need you want you and miss you

And wish that you were here with me today.



--- Instrumental ---



So I'll just say I love you with all my lonely heart

And wish today that I could be with you

So until we're together I'll think of you each day

And save all my love just for you.



I've torn up letter after letter till the basket overflows

And still can't seem to find the simple way

To tell you that I need you want you and miss you

And wish that you were here with me today.



And wish that you were here with me today...
