[CHORUS]
Well he drops off the mail at my door
and he carries the weight of the world

Silent footsteps that soon disappear
The Post-man was here
And I don't think we got anymore

And I know that he's onto next door
There's a slam down the rad that I hear
The post-man was here


Got a letter addressed to "My Dear"
saying how have you been since last year?

Though everything moves with a thrill,
I'm standing still
Well you sent me a note in the mail

Said that "Love would go on without fail"
But the messenger could not be found
Seen nowhere around


[CHORUS]
Was September when you went away

And everywhere that's where you stay
But you fill up a small envelope
Your heart in a note

Well it travels it way through the air
And it somehow winds up on my stair
As the post-man is hitting the road

To lighten his load

[CHORUS]

"la ladadum"
"la ladadum"
"la ladadum"


Got a message addressed to "my dear"
Saying "how have you been since last year?"

Though everything moves with a thrill,
I'm standing still
Well I got a spare pen in my bag

Send a letter from this sappy sag
If you die out there amoungst the rocks
I'll be at this post-box


[CHORUS] X1.5
