Love Letter Lyrics

[Intro]
Do do do do do do
Do do do do
Yeah
La la la la la la
La la la la

[Chorus]
Did you get my card?
Did you read my love letter?
Did it touch your heart?
When you read my love letter

[Verse 1]
Sunny days, smiling face
Spirit filled, heaven praised
Memories in my mind
Reminiscing of good times
Miracles, so amazed
Soldiers far away
It makes me ask the question, babe

[Chorus]
Did you get my card? (uh)
Did you read my love letter? (yeah)
Did it touch your heart? (yeah baby)
When you read my love letter
(when you read my love letter)
[Verse 2]
Weekends and birthdays
Celebration, holidays
Love making history
A toast to our victories
Sweet dreams, butterflies
Holding hands, side by side
Best friends, families
Reminds me

[Chorus]
Did you get my card? (my card)
(did you get my card girl?)
Did you read my love letter?
(tell me did you read my love letter?)
Did it touch your heart?
(did it touch your heart?)
When you read my love letter
(when you read my love letter, babe)

[Verse 3]
Cocktails, happy hours
Wedding bells, baby showers
Vacations, sailboats
With the ones you love the most
Long time no see
Back together you and me
Write me back when you receive this here
[Chorus]
Did you get my card? (yeah)
(did you get my card?)
Did you read my love letter?
(did you read my love letter?)
Did it touch your heart?
(tell me, did it touch your heart?)
When you read my love letter
(girl, when you read my love letter)

[Verse 4]
I hope these
Hope these words find you in the perfect mood
I wrote this letter according to my love for you
So I hope this paper will travel safely to where you are
Because the melody is custom made for your heart
Though near or far I will find a way to send my love
Only pray that it don’t come back return to sender
If you are reading this I hope that things are well
And you can text me back, you can write me back
Just check your mail


[Chorus]
Did you get my card?
(did you get my card, yeah?)
Did you read my love letter?
(girl tell me)
Did it touch your heart?
(when you read)
When you read my love letter
(my love, my love)
[Chorus]
Did you get my card?
(did it make you smile, yeah?)
Did you read my love letter?
(did it lift you up, yeah?)
Did it touch your heart?
(did it make you wanna write me back, baby?)
When you read my love letter
(when you got my love letter)

[Outro]
All the ladies sing for me
Do do do do do do
Do do do do
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Ladies sing
La la la la la la
La la la la

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
