| I just got your letter, dear sweetheart
|
| And darling, I miss you oh, so much
|
| Your letter has cheered me but I’m lonesome
|
| Lonesome just to feel your loving touch
|
| Letters have no arms dear to hold me
|
| Kisses on paper are so cold
|
| These sweet things you write in your letter
|
| I wanna be with you dear when told
|
| Letters never bring me the touch of your hand
|
| Or none of your sweet loving charms
|
| I get so lonesome for you darling
|
| And you know that letters have no arms
|
