Текст песни
Last month,
While thinking of love,
I wrote him some words
And mailed them away.
But the next day,
I found at my door
A letter from Spain
He’d sent long before
And his note read:
“I haven’t heard from you in weeks.
I must assume that you no longer care.
Too bad, that’s it, goodbye.”
It’s just amazing
How loving can fail
From letters that cross in the mail.
A life, a love, a chance to win it all
Can pass you by and be found unseen.
And you think you’ll find your fate tomorrow night
And it finds somebody else in between.
I sat with swords in my heart
And pen in my hand.
I wrote, “I’m glad that we’re through.”
Full of hate, I mailed it.
But then in a week,
A letter arrived,
With love did it speak.
And his note read:
“I love the tender words you sent.
It seems I wronged you, please forgive me.
I’ll return, I should leave soon.”
But, God, I know now
That he’ll never sail;
Our letters will cross in the mail.
It’s just amazing
How time brings a loss,
And loving can fail
Like letters that cross in the mail.
While thinking of love,
I wrote him some words
And mailed them away.
But the next day,
I found at my door
A letter from Spain
He’d sent long before
And his note read:
“I haven’t heard from you in weeks.
I must assume that you no longer care.
Too bad, that’s it, goodbye.”
It’s just amazing
How loving can fail
From letters that cross in the mail.
A life, a love, a chance to win it all
Can pass you by and be found unseen.
And you think you’ll find your fate tomorrow night
And it finds somebody else in between.
I sat with swords in my heart
And pen in my hand.
I wrote, “I’m glad that we’re through.”
Full of hate, I mailed it.
But then in a week,
A letter arrived,
With love did it speak.
And his note read:
“I love the tender words you sent.
It seems I wronged you, please forgive me.
I’ll return, I should leave soon.”
But, God, I know now
That he’ll never sail;
Our letters will cross in the mail.
It’s just amazing
How time brings a loss,
And loving can fail
Like letters that cross in the mail.
