Seven letters

This is my last letter, baby
I just can't write you anymore
My poor little finger's swollen
I'm tired of pacing the floor, yes, i am

Threw away our favorite record
It was tearing me apart
This is my seventh letter, baby
Just to satisfy my heart

(one) monday, i wrote and told you
I was all alone and blue
(two) tuesday, i wrote again, baby
I said i loved no one, no one
No one but you, no, i don't

(three) wednesday, i wired you a cable
Begging you to call
(four) thursday, i sent the message
I said i was wrong and, darling
Please come back home

(five) friday, i woke up crying
With the sniff of a tear
(six) come along long lonesome saturday
I did the same thing all over again
Yes, i did

(seven) this is my seventh letter, baby
On this bright sunday morning
Just got off my knees from praying
I said, oh, lord, oh, lord
Please send her back home
Can't she hear me talking to her

(this is my last letter
Dear, to you)
Seven letters, seven days
Seven long, lonely days
There, i said it

(this is my last letter
Dear, to you) yes, it is
Yes, it is, yes, it is
Oh, yes, it is
