Ever since I read your letter, 

where you said you loved me, true.

but they didn't mean a thing.

I just got to reach you baby 

in spite of all that I've been through

Well, there's nothing that could hold me. 
                                A 
Or that could keep me away from you.

When your loving letter told me,

He would shine His brightest light,

He would shine His brightest light,
