Burnt Love Letters (Bonus - Piano Only) - Dave Greening

It's been two weeks since your last letter and

It feels like an eternity

When I hear the mail arrive my heart soars as

I carefully open the envelope and savor every word

It's almost like Christmas

I wish they were all a thousand pages long so that

I would never have to stop reading

I went into the city last week and passed

By our old building

Have do you remember when we used to dance on the rooftop

At night in the rain and you'd spin me around and

My hair would get so wet it would stick to my face

And you had to push it out of

The way just to kiss me and Mrs

Lourdes would always tell us we were going to catch our death

Up there as we passed her door on the way downstairs

I miss trying to sneak past her door before racing

You down the stairs to our flat

Sometimes I'd let you win just so that you'd do that

Silly victory dance

I miss the excitement of those nights even though

Our clothes were soaked and it was cold

I miss dancing with you in the rain

I miss you so much

I can't stop thinking about you

I miss running my fingers through your hair

Standing on tip-toes to reach your lips or singing off key

On purpose in the car to annoy Liv

I miss your stupid jokes and the way you absentmindedly push your

Glasses up your nose while you're working

I miss you even when I am sleeping

I lie awake at night in the dark and listen to

The rain gently tapping the window pane and I imagine dancing

With you again until sleep finally finds me

My heart aches every time I wake to feel

Your empty place beside me

I miss waking up to your smile and your warmth

Please come home safely

I love you
