Lyrics
Dear Darlin', hello.
How are you today?
I miss you so terribly. I pray that you're ok.
I anticipate your letters, they're few and far between.
Still I welcome any word, it helps me to believe.
I've waited so long for your return.
I know that you'll be home very soon.
Please keep on writing to me.
As patient as I am, it's hard for me to wait.
Days and days pass by, but still you are away.
I'll always look for letters, some word of any kind.
Though I'd love to hear your voice, it would so ease my mind.
I've waited so long for your return.
I know that you'll be home very soon.
Please keep on writing to me.
I can only wonder what goes through your mind;
Living in a foreign world where people are so unkind.
When will I get to see you again?
I've waited so long for your return.
I know that you'll be home very soon.
Sincerely yours,
I love you.
