Blue Letter Lyrics
it was a blue letter she wrote to me
it's silver words she told
"wanna be on the road to paradise,
i wanna lover who don't get old"
CHORUS:
do i read the message in your eyes
you wanna love to stay another night
hey baby when your day goes down
i won't be waitin' around for you
for every voice you ever heard,
there's a thousand without a word
red bird...don't say you told me so,
just give me one more song to go
(repeat chorus)
it's silver words she told
"wanna be on the road to paradise,
i wanna lover who don't get old"
do i read the message in your eyes
you wanna love to stay another night
hey baby when your day goes down
i won't be waitin' around for you
there's a thousand without a word
red bird...don't say you told me so,
just give me one more song to go

It is quite the cool cover.
The song is about being dumped by someone who is searching for a much younger lover, or possibly, fame and immortality, forcing both lovers to go their own way (heh heh, sorry) and resenting each other, with Buckingham actually passive aggressively saying: "I hope you fail."
