Seven Letters

This is my last letter

Dear, to you

This is my last letter, baby

I just can't write you anymore

My poor little finger's swollen

I'm tired of pacing the floor, yes, i am

Threw away our favorite record

It was tearing me apart

This is my seventh letter, baby

Just to satisfy my heart

(one) monday, i wrote and told you

I was all alone and blue

(two) tuesday, i wrote again, baby

I said i loved no one, no one

No one but you, no, i don't

(three) wednesday, i wired you a cable

Begging you to call

(four) thursday, i sent the message

I said i was wrong and, darling

Please come back home

(five) friday, i woke up crying

With the sniff of a tear

(six) come along long lonesome saturday

I did the same thing all over again

Yes, i did

(seven) this is my seventh letter, baby

On this bright sunday morning

Just got off my knees from praying

I said, oh, lord, oh, lord

Please send her back home

Can't she hear me talking to her

(this is my last letter

Dear, to you)

Seven letters, seven days

Seven long, lonely days

There, i said it

(this is my last letter

Dear, to you) yes, it is

Yes, it is, yes, it is

Oh, yes, it is
