Story Behind The Song
The first verse describes a letter written many years ago by a man to a woman, in the days before electronic communication. The second verse is written from a woman to a man, before the days of online communication. The third verse is a modern-day online conversation between a man and a woman.
Song Description
This song is inspired by conversations with someone who lives far away. I recently lost contact with that person, but I hope that when the song is finished, one of her friends will forward it to her.

Lyrics
This song is a work in progress, but here are a couple of verses:
I've never seen you but I know you're quite a sight
With eyes that refract the light and a smile making bright the night
Your weight is close to one hundred, maybe two hundred
Three hundred or four that's okay
I'm pleased to know you're never floating away
I've never heard you but I bet you sound so sweet
A voice to caress my brain like the whoop of a whooping crane
You'd sound a little Peruvian, Antediluvian
Groovy in a movie in time
But till we meet, you'll have to sound like a mime
