Lyrics

LOVE LOOKS GOOD ON PAPER

Your letter comes right through the mail,
Ahead of all others.
As I tear it open, I exhale.
Then I start to shudder.

As I read each page, they unveil,
The words so tenderly.
Every line reads like a fairy tale,
Then all of a sudden, it hits me.

How much I miss,
The way it feels to hold you.
And I want you back,
It's time I finally told you . . .

Love looks good on paper, in black and white.
You put your love in there and sealed it tight.
I need something better,
Than what I get when I open your letter.
Love looks good on paper,
But it would look better on me!

Send me a signal, give me hope.
I have this vision.
One or two hearts on your envelope,
Will tell me your decision.

One if it's "no,"
We'll never be together.
Two if it's "yes,"
It's you and me forever!

(Repeat CHORUS)

I waited for your letter,
It seemed like forever.
I opened up my mailbox, what did I see?
Two big hearts staring right at me!

(Repeat CHORUS)

Bring your love to me, baby.
Lay your love on me, baby.
