What Was in That Letter (Demo)

[Intro]
It's amazing
What words can do
Give your eyes a sparkle
Turn you inside-out
You washed in those words
You sewed them in the lining of your heart
And they slowly seeped into your blood
And ran the course of your body

[Verse 1]
Faster than any drug
Faster than lightning
They ran to your feet
Your steps were solid, and they ran on to your hands
Your fingers weren't afraid to touch
And they ran to your lips
And they spoke so soft
Ever so softly
On to me again

[Chorus 1]
Hey, what was in that letter
That calls to me, to me?
Hey, what was in that letter?
Tenderly, babe, tenderly
What was in that letter
That haunts me from this distance?
I said, what was in that letter?
So sure, so persistent, yes
Why don't you open it?
Read it again
Yeah, open it

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 2]
Why don't you open it?
Read it again
Read it over again
To you and me
Why don't you let every last line
Sink into our little minds?
Read it again
Tear the curtain down
Pull the altar to the ground

[Chorus 2]
Hey, what was in that letter
That calls to me?
Yeah, what was in that letter?
Tenderly, baby
What was in that letter
That haunts me from this distance?
I said, what was in that letter?
Hey, what was in that letter?
Hey, what was in that letter?
Yeah, what was in that letter?
