Lyrics

In a letter from her heart to my heart,
that came one rainy day, in sunny June,
she said "I'm sorry I hurt you, didn't mean to desert you
at a time you were falling apart."
Well, my thoughts were like late snow, or thousands of buffalo,
crossin' the Great Plains of Love.
But, her words came like arrows that cut to the marrow
of all that I'd ever dreamed of,
in a letter from her heart to my heart.

Then, in a letter from my heart to her heart,
written in a haze of lonesome blues,
I said I'd be as brave and as manly as any man can be
when his whole world is falling apart.
Now the vultures all have landed, where I'm sullen and I'm stranded,
as darkness falls on Copano Bay.
Though I long for her to hold me, I can see the words she told me
that hung there, as the sunshine slipped away,
in a letter from her heart to my heart.
