(Verse 1)
She's writing a letter to an old friend back home
I hope this finds you well and doing fine
But the closer the pen gets to the end of the page
The truth slides through and she says what's on her mind
I hope this finds you with me always on your mind
Cause all I do is think of you and why I left this time
And I hope this finds you with me always on your mind
(Verse 2)
[Well] If feelings fall on paper I'll send to you these tears
And you will understand what I've felt for all these years
The seed that we planted when we were so very young
Has grown to be a man, and what a man he's become
But she laid down the pen; she couldn't tell him any more
And she folded it in her Bible and placed it in her nightstand drawer
And he won't read [get] the letter though he's not so hard to find
From the woman who still loves him and has him always on her mind
(Verse 3)
Well the years went by and she still had the letter in her drawer
And one Saturday Western Union came and knocked upon her door
You can't say much in a Telegram but Ten Words will do just fine
He Said [well it read] I Still Love You And You're Always On My Mind
Well he said I Still Love You And You're Always On My Mind
