    Lyrics:
    I hold this letter in my hand
    A plea, a petition, a kind of prayer
    I hope it does as I have planned
    Losing her again is more than I can bear
    I kiss the cold, white envelope
    I press my lips against her name
    Two hundred words. We live in hope
    The sky hangs heavy with rain
    Love Letter Love Letter
    Go get her Go get her
    Love Letter Love Letter
    Go tell her Go tell her
    A wicked wind whips up the hill
    A handful of hopeful words
    I love her and I always will
    The sky is ready to burst
    Said something I did not mean to say
    Said something I did not mean to say
    Said something I did not mean to say
    It all came out the wrong way
    Love Letter Love Letter
    Go get her Go get her
    Love Letter Love Letter
    Go tell her Go tell her
    Rain your kisses down upon me
    Rain your kisses down in storms
    And for all who’ll come before me
    In your slowly fading forms
    I’m going out of my mind
    Will leave me standing in
    The rain with a letter and a prayer
    Whispered on the wind
    Come back to me
    Come back to me
    O baby please come back to me

Being a starry eyed optimistic teenager hearing this when it was released, being front row and feeling his sweat upon me, to the bitter jaded middle aged crone I am becoming now.

Sia che la tua Lei o il tuo Lui sia ancora li con te, sia che non siano mai tornati indietro ascoltare questo capolavoro restituisce la pace. Riempie il cuore e gli occhi di lacrime... ma quando si Ama fino in fondo si ha sempre ragione.

    Every scene in this music video has a certain desolate quality to it. Scenes you could only attach romance to in a certain blissful state of mind, when even washed-out highways and parking lots become meaningful.
    And places like these don't seem "ugly" when this song is playing in your ears.

    I've spent hours taking in the song's brilliance. Now take a look at the clip. The images are unbelievably thought provoking and the blue-yellow colour pattern after the first verse creates a motif that only accentuates the melancholy. I only realised the penetrating force of this motif when I was cycling in an unfamiliar neighbourhood around dusk (blue). The street lamps were turnt on as I was passing (yellow) and it instantly reminded me of the song, along with its heart-rendingness. Beautiful.

    • @complexlittlepirate3589
      @complexlittlepirate3589 7 лет назад +4

      It is indeed an exquisitive video with a nice Jeffrey Smart touch to it. Evoking all these images of a long, desolate, lonely night with the abandoned heartsick lover waiting through endless hours, hoping and praying his letter will have the desired effect. The images of the storm in particular and how all the images match to the colour and timbre of the music, it's masterful.

    Rain your kisses down in storms
    And for all who'll come before me
    In your slowly fading forms
