Shakin Stevens - A letter to you lyrics

I tore my letter up

I couldn't even start

To tell you what's really in my heart.

There's only so much that words can say

So I sent you a piece of this beautiful day.

Oh

I want you to know that I took a rainbow

And sent it off in a letter to you.

Took some flowers in the spring

made a sweet clover ring

And sent it off in a letter to you.

Took a song from the lark - the moon from the dark

A spark with the sparkling dew.

VVith a kiss and a hug and a whole lot of love

I sent 'em off in a letter to you.

I took the mornin' sun peekin' through the trees

And the dandelion silk tangled in the breeze

I folded 'em up - sealed 'em with a kiss

It's the kind of letter that you can't resist.

Oh

I want you to know that I took a rainbow . . .

In a day or two - just you wait and see

You're gonna get a special delivery.

You'll know the way I feel -

There can't be any doubt

When you open it up

And let the love spill out.

Oh

I want you to know

That I took a rainbow . . .

You know

I sent 'em off

In a letter to you.

You know

I sent 'em off

In a letter to you. . . .
