Shakin' Stevens

A Letter To You

I tore my letter up, couldn't even start

To tell you what's really here in my heart

There's only so much that words can say

So I sent you a piece of this beautiful day

Oh, I want you to know that I took a rainbow

And sent it off in a letter to you

Took some flowers in the spring, made a sweet clover ring

And sent it off in a letter to you

Took a song from the lark - the moon from the dark

A spark with the sparkling dew

With a kiss and a hug and a whole lot of love

I sent 'em off in a letter to you

I took the mornin' sun, peekin' throgh the trees

And the dandelion silk tangled in the breeze

I folded 'em up - sealed 'em with a kiss

It's the kind of letter that you can't resist

Oh, I want you to know that I took a rainbow

And sent it off in a letter to you

Took some flowers in the spring, made a sweet clover ring

And sent it off in a letter to you

Took a song from the lark - the moon from the dark

A spark with the sparkling dew

With a kiss and a hug and a whole lot of love

I sent 'em off in a letter to you

In a day or two - just you wait and see

You're gonna get a special delivery

You'll know the way I feel - there can't be any doubt

When you open it up and let the love spill out

Oh, I want you to know that I took a rainbow

And sent it off in a letter to you

Took some flowers in the spring, made a sweet clover ring

And sent it off in a letter to you

Took a song from the lark - the moon from the dark

A spark with the sparkling dew

With a kiss and a hug and a whole lot of love

I sent 'em off in a letter to you

You know

I sent 'em off in a letter to you

Ooohh, baby

I sent 'em off in a letter to you

You know

See what I want? (in a letter to you)

Ooohh, baby

See what I want? (in a letter to you)

Woooh!
