I tore my letter up I couldn't even start To tell you what's really in my heart There's only so much that words can say So I sent you a piece of this beautiful day Oh I want you to know that I took a rainbow And sent it off in a letter to you Took some flowers in the spring Made a sweet clover ring And sent it off in a letter to you Took a song from the lark - the moon from the dark A spark with the sparkling dew VVith a kiss and a hug and a whole lot of love I sent 'em off in a letter to you I took the mornin' sun peekin' through the trees
And the dandelion silk tangled in the breeze I folded 'em up - sealed 'em with a kiss It's the kind of letter that you can't resist Oh I want you to know that I took a rainbow . . In a day or two - just you wait and see You're gonna get a special delivery You'll know the way I feel - There can't be any doubt When you open it up And let the love spill out Oh I want you to know That I took a rainbow . . You know I sent 'em off In a letter to you You know I sent 'em off In a letter to you. . .
