The Letter Lyrics

Sell me a ticket for that airplane
I ain’t got time to take a fast train
Lonely days are gone I’m coming home
My baby wrote me a letter

Bridge:- And I don’t care how much I gotta spend
I gotta get back to my baby again
Lonely days are gone I’m coming home
My baby wrote me a letter

Chorus:- Well he wrote me a letter
Said he couldn’t live without me no more
Ohh listen Mister can you see
I gotta get back to my baby once more anyway

Bridge:- I don’t care how much…

<instrumental>

Chorus:- Well he wrote…

Bridge:- I don’t care how much…

<instrumental>

Sell me a ticket for that airplane
I ain’t got time to take a fast train
Lonely days are gone I’m coming home
My baby wrote me a letter

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
