Donna Hughes Letters Lyrics

Letters Lyrics

When I was young, my grandma lived two hours away

When I first learned to write, I had a lot to say

I wrote her a letter every week

She couldn't wait to get them, she couldn't wait to see



What I was doing and all about my friends

What I was dreaming, places I had been

What I was hoping that I could be some day

I wrote it in my letters and I mailed them all away



She always wrote me back, every single week

And how I loved to get her letters from the time I could read

Years later I was going through her things

And I found all the letters, she had saved for me



When she went to Heaven, I cried so many tears

But she's here in these letters, after all these years



What she was doing and all about her friends

What she was dreaming, places she had been

What she had hoped for and things she'd like to see

She wrote it in her letters and she mailed them off to me

She wrote it in her letters and she mailed them off to me
