I read your letter yesterday
If fell between the covers and my bare skin
It fell between my crying
And my longing for youI loved this one too long
This one much too much
Sometimes I gave just enough of myself
But most times nothing at allAnd you've been gone too long
You know I love you the best
You call me crazy, that's how you won my heart
'Cause you were half crazy tooI read your letter again today
Out loud and to myself
It gave me back my sanity
I didn't feel so aloneWon't be too soon
Not like the night
Not like the night on a summer's day
Can't wait to see you step across the room, empty roomSave you and me
I feel your touches in your letters
But it's not half as good as you touching me
In real
