Lyrics
[verse]
Every day I check the box and hope to find your hand
A letter folded soft with words I understand
The postman knows my face by now, he sees the way I wait
For paper proof that love like ours could never be too late
[chorus]
Because I love you, I'll wait by the door
Because I love you, I'll wait a little more
Send me just a line, just a word, just a sign
Because I love you, you'll always be mine
[verse]
Miles can't measure what my heart is holding onto tight
Every stamp's a promise sealed and sent into the night
I write your name in every letter that I send away
And dream about the moment when you're home to stay
[chorus]
Because I love you, I'll wait by the door
Because I love you, I'll wait a little more
Send me just a line, just a word, just a sign
Because I love you, you'll always be mine
[bridge]
Distance never stopped a heart that's sure
Every mile just makes the love feel more
Come home soon, or write to say
I'm counting down the hours every day
[chorus]
Because I love you, I'll wait by the door
Because I love you, I'll wait a little more
Send me just a line, just a word, just a sign
Because I love you, you'll always be mine
