As I write this letter
My heart's beating much too fast for my pen
Soon I'll be in your arms again

To think I'll be with you
To taste all those sweet, sweet kisses once more
Darling, that's what I'm longing for

But most of all I just wanna hear that wonderful sound "I love you"
It brings sweet music to my heart
It's been so long since I heard the sound, that wonderful sound "I need you"
My love, why ever did we part?

I need reassuring
Those thoughts have been storing up in my mind
When I get home what will I find?

Will you still remember?
And will your love be tender and strong?
I've been away from you so long

So when I'm home I just wanna hear that wonderful sound "I love you"
It brings sweet music to my heart
It's been so long since I heard the sound
That wonderful sound "I need you"
My love, why ever did we part?
My love, why ever did we part?
