The Letter Song lyrics

[MARTHA, spoken]
D-E-A-R

[MARY]
Uncle Archie
How are you? I'm fine
Everybody else is too
Please come home

[ARCHIBALD, spoken]
Home? I have no home. 

[MARY]
Martha says that you're in Paris

[ARCHIBALD, spoken]
It's a house, child. 

[MARY]
Is that very far away?

[ARCHIBALD, spoken]
Just a house. 

[MARY]
Do they have nice girls and boys there?
[ARCHIBALD, spoken]
And I can't get far enough away from it. 

[MARY]
Please come home

[MARTHA, spoken]
Now, just sign it. 

[MARY]
Should I say that Colin's well now?

[ARCHIBALD]
Streets of Paris, like a maze

[MARY]
Should I say that Doctor Craven...

[ARCHIBALD]
Sleepless nights and aimless days

[MARTHA]
I think that what you have is good
Let's get it posted on its way
He'll rush home, then you can tell him
All the rest you have to say
[MARY, ARCHIBALD]
Oh, kind sir, Uncle Archie (Can't forget)
How I wish that you could see (Can't eat or sleep or live)
When you come into the garden
Please come home (Can't forgive)

[MARY]
Yours truly?

[MARTHA]
Well, maybe. 

[MARY]
Sincerely?

[MARTHA]
How about...

[MARY & MARTHA]
Your friend

[MARY]
Mary
