I wrote my first love letter at 21 years old
I wrote my first love letter and I waited for the post
To see if I'll have courage I'll send you all my soul

I wrote my first love letter, now I can't seem to let it go

It cost me 3 cents extra to get it packed with care
But baby this one's fragile, so if you read please beware

What's my fate? What's my fate?
If I should ever send this page
Oh, be brave, oh, be brave
It's too late

If I ever gained the courage before we're old and grown
When you read my letter it's gon' rock your heart and soul
'Cause baby in my letter is my love written so bold
