The Letter - Aretha Arrives Outtake
A letter for you
A kind of blue
Don't have a story to tell
Ain't got no fancy words to say
I just hope this letter brings
Sunshine your way
I see you too seldom
And this makes me blue
Everything I do, darling
Is done, yes, for you
(A letter for you)
And the meaning is
I love you, I love you, true
My life was so empty
Before I met you
Miles between us
They seem so far
Home is, home, home is wherever you are
Darling, please (please)
Darling, please, please, please, please (please, please)
Don't break my heart (please)
I'd, I'd be so unhappy
If we, oh no, ever had to part
I'm dreaming so many sweet dreams of you
I love you, oh, you're crazy so
In everything that you do
I want you here by my side
I really want to be your blessed bride
Tonight it hit me
Day shall be bright
My, time to get in Heaven now!
It's time to say goodnight
(To say goodnight)
Goodnight, goodnight (ooh, yes, I love you)
Ooh
Time to say goodnight (to say goodnight)
Goodnight, baby (ooh, yes, I love you)
Goodnight, darlin'
Time to say goodnight
(To say goodnight)
A kind of blue
Don't have a story to tell
Ain't got no fancy words to say
I just hope this letter brings
Sunshine your way
I see you too seldom
And this makes me blue
Everything I do, darling
Is done, yes, for you
(A letter for you)
And the meaning is
I love you, I love you, true
My life was so empty
Before I met you
Miles between us
They seem so far
Home is, home, home is wherever you are
Darling, please (please)
Darling, please, please, please, please (please, please)
Don't break my heart (please)
I'd, I'd be so unhappy
If we, oh no, ever had to part
I'm dreaming so many sweet dreams of you
I love you, oh, you're crazy so
In everything that you do
I want you here by my side
I really want to be your blessed bride
Tonight it hit me
Day shall be bright
My, time to get in Heaven now!
It's time to say goodnight
(To say goodnight)
Goodnight, goodnight (ooh, yes, I love you)
Ooh
Time to say goodnight (to say goodnight)
Goodnight, baby (ooh, yes, I love you)
Goodnight, darlin'
Time to say goodnight
(To say goodnight)
