LETTERS THAT CROSS IN THE MAIL Lyrics

Artist: Barbra Streisand
Album: Lazy Afternoon

Last month
While thinking of love
I wrote him some words and mailed them away
But the next day
I found at my door a letter from Spain
Heâ‚¬â„¢d sent long before
And his note read
I havenâ‚¬â„¢t heard from you in weeks
I must assume that you no longer care
Too bad thatâ‚¬â„¢s it, goodbye
Itâ‚¬â„¢s just amazing
How loving can fail
From letters that cross in the mail
A life, a love, a chance to win it all
Can pass you by, in the foreign scene
And you think youâ‚¬â„¢ll find your fate tomorrow night
And he finds somebody else in-between
I sat with swords in my heart
And pen in a hand I wrote
Iâ‚¬â„¢m glad that weâ‚¬â„¢re through
Full of hate I mailed it
But then in a week a letter arrived
With love did it speak
And his note read
I loved the tender words you sent
It seems I wronged you please forgive me
Iâ‚¬â„¢ll return, I should leave soon
But oh, I know now that heâ‚¬â„¢ll never sail
Our letters will cross in the mail
Itâ‚¬â„¢s just amazing
How time brings a loss
And loving can fail
Like letters that cross in the mail...
