Before we had smartphones
Before we used email
You shared all your thoughts
Using paper and pen
I'd wait for the postman
To drop off your letter
The wait was long but it was worth it

Mr postman why do you take so long
To bring me my love poem ohh
Mr postman I'm listening for the door
Now it's almost half past four oh no

I read every letter
I pondered your words
Decode all the mysteries
In search of your love
I cherished your letters
Hand delivered from you to me
The wait was long but it was worth it

Mr postman why do you take so long
To bring me my love poem ohh
Mr postman I'm listening for the door
Now it's almost half past four oh no

Oh how I miss
The smell of paper and ink
The perfumed stain pages in my hands
I'd happily wait for mr postman running late
Just to get another love note from you
From you
