Letters To the Colonel

[Verse 1]
Saw you in the paper, you're too good to be true
Had to write a letter, how I'd love to get to know you
Forgive me if I'm forward, but you're perfect, it's true
Give your secrets to the mailman, send them on through

Dearest Buckskin Bill, you flatter me just so
I'm afraid you won't want me, weather-beaten and old
How much, my dear, would you love me
If I let you

[Chorus]
Don't need a crystal ball to know you're my soulmate
The letters you write warm me up enough to hibernate
I'll terrorize the mailbox looking for your next hello
I'm waiting on your post

[Verse 2]
My paramour, apple of my eye
You're my queen, my sweetheart; for you, I'll always pine
Throw caution to the wind, I'm certain about you
My heart, my love, I give you

Darling pal, you've found the recipe
Every syllable you've written seems curated for me
You've peeked inside my brain, you're a similar insane
I'm a decent sweetheart, but not fit to take your name

[Chorus]
Don't need a crystal ball to know you're my soulmate
The letters you write warm me up enough to hibernate
I'll terrorize the mailbox looking for your next hello
I'm waiting on your post

[Bridge]
Oh, my eyes lit up
For the first time since 1929

[Outro]
Don't need a crystal ball to know you're my soulmate
The letters you write warm me up enough to hibernate
I'll terrorize the mailbox looking for your next hello
I'm waiting on your post
I'm waiting on your post
