It's amazing what words can do, yeah: give your eyes a sparkle, turn you inside out,
You washed in those words, you sewed them in the lining of your heart,
And they slowly seeped into your blood, and ran they course of your body,
Faster than any drug, faster than lightning,
They ran to your feet, your steps were solid, ran onto your hands,
Your fingers weren't afraid to touch,
And they ran to your lips, and they spoke so soft...ever so softly unto me again.
And what was in that letter that calls to me?
Yeah, what was in that letter?
Oh, straight to the very heart of me,
In that letter that haunts me from this distance,
I said, what was in that letter?
So sure, so persistent, yeah.
Why don't you open it?
Read it again,
Yeah, open it.
Whoa, yeah,
Whoa,
Yeah, yea.
Said, better open it, read it again,
Oh, read it over again, oh, you and me, babe,
Why don't you let every last line sink into our little minds?
Read it again, tear the curtain down, pull the altar to the ground.
Hey, what was in that letter that calls to the heart and soul of me?
What was in that letter?
Oh, straight to the heart of me,
What was in that letter?
Haunts me from this distance,
I said, what was in that letter?
Hey, what was in that letter?
Oh, what was in that letter?
Yeah, what was in that letter?
