Rowena - Loudon Wainwright III

[00:20.397]Rowena, my darling, please don't let me down -
[00:25.398]A few words from you can lift me off the ground.
[00:29.898]Your letters are treasures, you don't know their worth.
[00:35.147]Days I don't receive one, I fall back to earth.
[00:41.147]Rowena, my darling, just a word or two -
[00:46.397]It means the world to me, those few words from you.
[00:51.397]But when you don't send them, why can't you see'
[00:56.648]It's as if the whole world had gone back on me.
[01:03.147]Tonight when I'm sleeping, I will dream of you -
[01:08.647]Wishfully thinking, what else can I do'
[01:13.648]Then in the morning, it's always the same,
[01:17.648]When dreaming is done, then I call out your name.
[01:44.398]Tonight when I'm sleeping, I will dream of you -
[01:49.647]Wishfully thinking, what else can I do'
[01:54.397]Until tomorrow, I can only hope
[01:58.647]For my heart's deliverance in an envelope.
[02:05.147]Rowena, my dear, yours to hand this  -
[02:10.398]I'm holding your letter, in heaven again.
[02:15.397]A few words from me now, to make sure you know,
[02:21.898]As ever, I'm yours, yes, and I love you so.
