Love Letters

Elvis Presley · Hit Story [2005]

Love letters straight from your heart

Keep us so near while apart

I'm not alone in the night

When I can have all the love you write



I memorize every line

And I kiss the name that you sign

And darling then

I read again right from the start

Love letters straight from your heart



(repeat)
