We’ve been tradin’ letters now forever And I’ve been on this job for much too long But one a’ these days I’m ‘a Gonna get paid then I’ll Finally bring a little money home
But now I’m not so sure I shoulda left ya 'Cause now I’m not so sure you’ll want me back And even though we trade these letters And each one makes me feel a bit better There’s something I would like to send instead
I wish that I could send you a country love song I wish that I could tell you I’m comin’ home So if I write a song I’ll send it To take your broken heart and mend it And if you’re still in love please sing along
Wouldn't be a stretch to say I need you Wouldn't be a lie to say I feel weak But it would sound a whole lot truer If I could only sing it to ya Words can only speak so much it seems
And if I close my eyes / I can almost hear you Singing me a country love song / Singing to me like you used to Before I went away / Before I left your side Just tell me that you want me back now / and I’ll be alright
