A Letter To Myself

The Chi-Lites


Write a letter, write another letter 
Write a letter, write another letter 
Im sealing up this letter 
I just finished signing your name 
My friends would all be surprised 
If they knew I was playing this game 
Ill pretend its a special delivery 
And just to give me a hint 
Ill use your favorite color 
Smear it with your favorite scent 
I know you think that im crazy 
But I cant loose what have I left 
So ive decided to write this letter 
And send it to myself 
So to make my story short 
In the mail box I will kiss 
This letter that I wrote 
And its stamped with your lovely face 
When Im alone 
And I need someone to talk to 
I talk to your picture 
Get me a pencil and paper 
And write all the things 
Say all the things ive heard you say before 
But with a little extra, extra read all about it 
Sugar and spice 
I guess it makes me feel kind of nice 
I write a letter to myself 
Oh, write another letter to myself 
I write another letter to myself 
Oh, write another letter to myself 
When is a home when youre all alone 
It seems so full 
It seems so full 
And yet so empty 
Oh, I get my coat 
Leave you a note and go to the places 
Were we used to be 
I pretend you are there 
Order dinner for two 
Your presence is all in the air 
( repeat ) 

I write a letter to myself, oh, write another letter to myself

Write a letter, write another letter
Escrevo uma carta, escrevo outra carta
Write a letter, write another letter
Escrevo uma carta, escrevo outra carta
I'm sealing up this letter
Estou selando esta carta
I just finished signing your name
E assinando por você
My friends would all be surprised
Meus amigos ficariam surpresos
If they knew i was playing this game
Se soubessem que estou fazendo isso
I'll pretend it's a special delivery
Vou fazer de conta que é uma entrega especial
And just to give me a hint
E para dar uma dica
I'll use your favorite color
Vou usar sua cor preferida
Smear it with your favorite scent
E colocar o seu perfume
I know you think that i'm crazy
Sei que você me acha louco
But i can't loose what have i left
Mas não posso perder, não resta nada
So i've decided to write this letter
Então resolvi escrever esta carta
And send it to myself
E mandar para eu mesmo
So to make my story short
Para encurtar a minha estória
In the mail box i will kiss
Na caixa de correio vou beijar
This letter that i wrote
Esta carta que escrevi
And it's stamped with your lovely face
E que está selada com o seu lindo rosto
When i'm alone
Quando estou sozinho
And i need someone to talk to
Precisando falar com alguém
I talk to your picture
Converso com sua fotografia
Get me a pencil and paper
Me traga papel e lápis
And write all the things
E escreva tudo
Say all the things i've heard you say before
Diga tudo que já ouvi dizer antes
But with a little "extra, extra read all about it"
Mas com um pouquinho mais de emoção
Sugar and spice
Doçura e vontade
I guess it makes me feel kind of nice
Acho que isso me faz sentir bem
I write a letter to myself
E escrevo uma carta à mim mesmo
Oh, write another letter to myself
Escrevo outra carta à mim mesmo
I write another letter to myself
Eu escrevo outra carta à mim mesmo
Oh, write another letter to myself
Escrevo outra carta à mim mesmo
When is a home when you're all alone
O que é uma casa quando você está sozinho
It seems so full
Pode parecer cheia
It seems so full
Pode parecer cheia
And yet so empty
E ao mesmo tempo tão vazia
Oh, i get my coat
Eu pego o meu casaco
Leave you a note and go to the places
Te deixo um bilhete e vou aos lugares
Were we used to be
Onde estivemos
I pretend you are there
Faço de conta que você está
Order dinner for two
Peço jantar para dois
Your presence is all in the air
Sua presença ainda está no ar
( repete )
I write a letter to myself, oh, write another letter to myself
