Today I saw her for the first time since she left me |
|
And she said, "I've got a favor to ask of you" |
|
And I said, "All right what is it?" |
|
And she said, "You know you always told me |
|
If I ever needed any help just to ask you and you'd help me" |
|
And I said yeah, "I remember" |
|
And she said," Well, there's this fellow that I've been going with |
|
And I just found out that he's been slipping around me |
|
And I thought that maybe if you'd write me a letter |
|
And tell me that you miss me and that you still love me |
|
That he may find it and it might read it |
|
And it might make him jealous and I might not lose it" |
|
And I said, "Okay I'll write you the letter" |
|
Dear sweetheart, just a line to let you know |
|
That I still think about you and I still love you so |
|
I remember your kisses and every time you held me tight |
|
But most of all I remember the good times that we had each night |
|
Dear sweetheart if you're lonely just let me know |
|
For you're still my one and only and I still love you so |
|
I'm gonna close for now sweetheart and try to go on without you |
|
But don't forget I'll always love you no matter what you do |
|
So now I've written the letter the way you've asked me to |
|
And I hope it makes him jealous the way you want it to |
|
For I've told you I still love you and I wanna be with you |
|
But you know sweetheart the saddest part |
|
I'm not pretending for I still do |
