I'm Singing To You

Close your innocent brown eyes. 
Listen to the sound of my guitar playing. 
Here comes the beat, the beat of my heart. 
I hope you can feel what I am about to say to you. 
Hold these words close, 
until we are back into each others’ arms. 
I know you miss me…I can barely live without you. 
It is hard to live so far apart, but remember when I sing… 
I’m singing to you. 

Well another one of my friends is gone from this war. 
His wife just had a little boy. 
I hope they will be okay. 
When I get home I got a surprise for you. 
Now remember these words as you fold up this letter. 
I love you and will be home soon. 
For now just close your eyes and listen… 
Let your heart be the beat this time…can you hear? 
I’m singing to you. 

If you are reading this letter…then I am sorry. 
I told Paul to give it to you if I didn't make it home. 
I hope he gave you the ring…wear it for me. 
Please do not give up on what I had for you. 
I know it will be hard being this far apart. 
If you meet someone else, please don’t hesitate. 
When it rains, listen hard. 
Raindrops fall, making the beat...that’s when you know 
I’m singing to you.
