Songtext von Letter In The Mail

I got your letter in the mail Throwin off my sense of scale I felt you touch my heart today But the postmark says you're far away Across the fields and desserts wide The mountains in the western sky Out where the sun sets on the sea So very far away from me Shadows fall upon my hand Movin west across the land You're only half way through your day When I put my dinner dish away As lonely as I've ever been I long to hear your voice again So I called you just to let you know I miss you and I love you so The farther I go down the track The more time I spend lookin back I wander through my memories More precious now than gold to me I close my eyes and I recall When I was young and you were small You know I miss those times back then But today you brought them back again I got your letter in the mail Throwin off my sense of scale It made me happy it made me sad To read those words "I love you dad"
