Nick Cave Love Letter Lyrics

Love Letter Lyrics

I hold this letter in my hand 
A plea, a petition, a kind of prayer 
I hope it does as I have planned 
Losing her again is more than I can bear 
I kiss the cold, white envelope 
I press my lips against her name 
Two hundred words. We live in hope 
The sky hangs heavy with rain 
 
Love Letter Love Letter 
Go get her Go get her 
Love Letter Love Letter 
Go tell her Go tell her 
 
A wicked wind whips up the hill 
A handful of hopeful words 
I love her and I always will 
The sky is ready to burst 
Said something I did not mean to say 
Said something I did not mean to say 
Said something I did not mean to say 
It all came out the wrong way 
 
Love Letter Love letter 
Go get her Go get her 
Love Letter Love letter 
Go tell her Go tell her 
 
Rain your kisses down upon me 
Rain your kisses down in storms 
And for all who`ll come before me 
In your slowly fading forms 
I`m going out of my mind 
Will leave me standing in 
The rain with a letter and a prayer 
Whispered on the wind 
 
Come back to me 
Come back to me 
O baby please come back to me
