Ghost-Written Love Letters

(album: Roll On Mississippi - 1981)

Well today I checked my mailbox another one was there
A letter written by some girl telling me she cared
All this time I've wondered who that secret admirer could be
I just don't know why she won't give her name to me

Now she says that she loves me and that I really mean a lot
She says there ain't another man with the kind of love I've got
I wonder if it might be from a girl that I once knew
The handwriting cannot be traced there's not a single clue

Yes I get ghost written love letters hand writing unknown
But they're the sweetest words I've ever heard oh they really turn me on
Yes they are ghost written love letters no one's name is signed
No address or no zip code not a clue of any kind

A these words of love she writes to me Lord I just can't resist
And I've tried ev'ry way I know to find out who she is
She might be somebody far away and then again somebody near
I've received so many letters from her ev'ryday another one appears

Yes I get ghost written love letters hand writing unknown
But they're the sweetest words I've ever heard oh they really turn me on
Yes they are ghost written love letters no one's name is signed
No address or no zip code not a clue of any kind
