Yolanda Harper - The Love Letter

I look at your picture on my wall
And remember how to me you always seemed ten feet tall
I keep your number in my phone as if you'll call
Even though you've already given this world your all
Just like plants lean to the side of the house
Where the sun shines brightly through
Folks say I have leanings that resemble you
I look at me and I see them too
The way you taught me to work hard and pray
And play a little bit each and every day
To speak my mind in a way that's kind
'Cause some things said you can't unsay
I feel it today in your own special way
You're still bringing sunshine to brighten my cloudy day
Random burst of happiness breaking through my blues
Is your way of saying, "I love you," I love you, too
I look at your picture on my phone
And remember how your quick wit wouldn't let sadness linger long
I keep sitting in your chair to feel you're there
Holding memories tight like a child hugs a Teddy bear
Just like plants lean to the side of the house
Where the sun shines brightly through
Folks say I have leanings that resemble you
I smile, 'cause I see them, too
The way you taught me to write and sing my songs
Some to share with the world, others I keep close to home
That not all roads are smooth, some are bumpy and rough
And there's no shame in a good cuss when you've had enough
I feel it today in your own special way
You're still bringing sunshine to brighten my cloudy day
A random burst of happiness breaking through my blues
Is your way of saying, "I love you," I love you, too
