This Lyric is: #115

I wrote this song, lyric and music, in the week before the tragic events of 9/11. Never thought it would have the meaning that it turned out to have -- a soldier in a war zone writing a letter to his wife back home...

SINCERELY YOURS

(Verse 1)
Thought I’d share my love in a letter
Cheer you up, make you feel better
With the stroke of a pen I’m in your heart

Wish upon a four-leaf clover
My tour-of-duty will soon be over
End the lonely miles keepin’ us apart

Sincerely yours

(Verse 2)
Think of you in the mornin’ sunrise
Dream of your magnetic blue eyes
A vision of beauty etched in my mind

Day and night my thoughts will wander
To the life I love to ponder
With you and the kids I left behind

Sincerely yours
Sincerely yours

(Bridge)
Can’t wait to get back home
My love, my love, my love (Back-up singers)
I'm weary of the combat zone
My love, my love, my love (Back-up singers)
Soon I’ll be callin’ on the phone
My love, my love, my love (Back-up singers)
To hear your voice whisperin’,
Whisperin’ (Back-up singers)
To hear your voice tremblin’
Tremblin’ (Back-up singers)
When knowing that I’m finally...
On my way

(Verse 3)
I send all my hugs and kisses
To the woman I call my missus
Knowin’ that you love me I will survive

I’ll seal this letter as the sunsets
Now a tear’s as close as it gets
To make me feel that I’m alive

Sincerely yours
Sincerely yours
Sincerely yours
Sincerely yours
