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