I love this song...but I think its about someone needing closure after a bad break up. To find that closure she convinces herself that the anonymous letter was from him to her. I think its true meaning is about how love can make someone delusional and they'd make up any story to make themselves believe anything to have closure. Its really kind of sad.
I agree completely. You can see she is stretching the plausibility of the letter being from 'him' when she says, "It must have fallen out of a hole in your old brown overcoat." It makes me feel sad for her every time I hear it. I can definitely relate.
