Write Me Back by Sunday Night

Lyrics

Mailbox on the corner, I check it every day
Nothing there but bills and a flyer or two to say
But I wrote you a page
In my best hand, no cage
And I'm hoping that an answer finds my door

Write me back, write me back
By Sunday night, don't be slack
A handwritten line, a little bit of you
Is the sweetest thing the postman can do
Write me back, write me back
Let the ink dance down the track

I know you're busy, and the world is loud and fast
But a letter slows the hours and makes the moments last
Just a word or two
Say you're thinking of me too
And I'll hum it all the way to the sun

Write me back, write me back
By Sunday night, don't be slack
A handwritten line, a little bit of you
Is the sweetest thing the postman can do
Write me back, write me back
Let the ink dance down the track

Crooked is okay
Short is fine with me
Just your name at the bottom
Is a song I'll sing with glee

Sunday evening light and a knock upon the door
An envelope with my name, and I'm dancing on the floor
Your slanted little hand
Says, I understand
And the whole street hears me shouting thank you

Write me back, write me back
By Sunday night, don't be slack
A handwritten line, a little bit of you
Is the sweetest thing the postman can do
Write me back, write me back
Let the ink dance down the track
