Seven Letters

Lyrics

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
