Read This Letter Lyrics

Jim Reeves

Somebody read this letter for me
There′s tears in my eyes and I can't see
I′m afraid that my darling wants to be free
Somebody read this letter for me

I'd like to read it but each time I try
My heart says it's bad news and I start to cry
I know at the ending there′ll be a goodbye
To see through these teardrops I can′t though I try

This is the letter I knew I would get
It's payment for something I′ll always regret
Be careful the paper's a little bit wet
With teardrops for someone I′ll never forget

If it's signed by a lawyer I know what that means
Tomorrow he′ll put an end to my dreams
He'll tell my darling once more you're free
Won′t somebody read this letter for me
