your letter

Singer: joan armatrading

i read your letter yesterday

if fell between the covers

and my bare skin

it fell between my crying

and my longing for you

i loved this one

too long

this one much to much

sometimes i gave just enough of myself

but most times nothing at all

and you've been gone

too long

you know i love you the best

you call me crazy

that's how you won my heart

'cos you were half crazy too

i read your letter again today

out loud

and to myself

it gave me back my sanity

i didn't feel so alone

won'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 room

save you and me

i feel your touches in your letters

but it's not half as good as you touching me

in real
