Your Letter

from Lay It Down by Krista Herring

about

It's a love song. :)

lyrics

I got your letter today
It came from half a world away
You said, "Baby, you sang to me on the train
All 9 hours through the headphones
As we rode on through the rain

I've been thinking about everything
I've been wondering what I have to bring

And I miss you, baby, more every night
It just feels a little lonely on this train tonight
As I ride across the ancient landscapes
All the ghosts seem to haunt me
And I'm thinking of you"

"So much irony," you said," in such a beautiful place
See, all the eyes are sad, my love
Still searching for some grace
I've been trying to find the love, just a trace
So, I close my eyes, and see your face

And I'm really not sure why
But I think I just might cry

I miss you, baby more every night
And I can't remember why I'm on this train tonight
As we ride on through the rain and wind
I can feel the love you send
Are you thinking of me?"

I put your letter down
I looked up at the stars
Said, baby can your hear this sound?
It's the beating of my heart
And every beat belongs to you

And I miss you, baby, more every night
I'm thinking of you as you ride that train tonight
As you glide across the ancient landscapes
I can hear you whisper to me
"I'm thinking of you."

I got your letter
But now I need you here
So come home soon
I'll be here, waiting for you
