Letter Full of Tears
Mmm
Here comes the mailman walking up the street
And it looks like he has a letter today for me
Wait a minute, let me look inside
No, it couldn't be from my guy
Because he he brought me, (yes he did)
I said he he brought me (yes he did)
A letter full of tears
I thought we had a love so strong (we had a love)
It would take a lifetime to break us apart
Oh yes
But I found out today I was wrong
And my reward was a broken heart (my my heart)
Ooh, here comes the teardrops
Welcome, a-welcome to my eyes
And I couldn't hold 'em back no matter if I tried
Whoa-oh
You know it hurt me so inside
Won't you pardon me while I cry
Because he brought me (yes, he did)
I said he brought me (yes, he did)
A letter full of tears (here comes the mailman)
Those aren't drip drop tears (bringing me tears)
Can't you see them falling
(Here comes the mailman bringing me tears)
Whoa, whoa, whoa-oh
(Hey, yes he did, hey-hey, yes he did)
(Hey-hey-hey, woo, yes he did)
I thought (hey-hey-hey, woo, yes he did)
We had a love so strong
(Hey-hey-hey, woo, yes he did)
But it just go
Here comes the mailman walking up the street
And it looks like he has a letter today for me
Wait a minute, let me look inside
No, it couldn't be from my guy
Because he he brought me, (yes he did)
I said he he brought me (yes he did)
A letter full of tears
I thought we had a love so strong (we had a love)
It would take a lifetime to break us apart
Oh yes
But I found out today I was wrong
And my reward was a broken heart (my my heart)
Ooh, here comes the teardrops
Welcome, a-welcome to my eyes
And I couldn't hold 'em back no matter if I tried
Whoa-oh
You know it hurt me so inside
Won't you pardon me while I cry
Because he brought me (yes, he did)
I said he brought me (yes, he did)
A letter full of tears (here comes the mailman)
Those aren't drip drop tears (bringing me tears)
Can't you see them falling
(Here comes the mailman bringing me tears)
Whoa, whoa, whoa-oh
(Hey, yes he did, hey-hey, yes he did)
(Hey-hey-hey, woo, yes he did)
I thought (hey-hey-hey, woo, yes he did)
We had a love so strong
(Hey-hey-hey, woo, yes he did)
But it just go
