[Chorus]
'Cos if we lived a long time ago
These would be my love letters to you, to you

If we lived a long time ago
These would be my love letters to you, to you


Well these words that I write, they go up in the sky
Sit up in space, come down in your eyes
It's true, it's true

I don't need no birds that fly, I can send my love through the satellite
It's true, it's true


[Chorus]

If we lived a long time ago

These would be my love letters to you, to you
[x2]


Well I don't need no plane or train or automobile
To send you all my love and ask you, "How do you feel?"
It's true, it's true


I used to keep your letters underneath my bed
Now at a push of a button, they go straight to my head

It's true, they go straight to my head

If we lived a long time ago

These would be my love letters to you, to you
[x2]


And if there was a blackout, I would have to let you know
I'd light a thousand lanterns in the sky and let them go
I'd watch them float away and burn out right next to the stars

But at least you'd know that I sent my love and the brightest ones were ours

[Chorus]


If we lived a long time ago
These would be my love letters to you, to you
