SEND ME A POSTCARD

Music and Lyrics by HARRY LEWIS

 

Miss ya’,

I’m gonna miss ya’!

I could pretend it isn’t so,

But somehow you would know.

If only I could stay.

 

See ya’,

I guess I’ll see ya’!

Though there is something you can do

To make me feel less blue.

There really is a way.

 

SEND ME A POSTCARD,

It needn’t say much.

Just a few words like,

“Let’s keep in touch.”

Then when I read it,

Like magic you’re near

Saying those words right here!

 

SEND ME A POSTCARD,

A postcard is fine

To say what you may in a handful of lines.

Use some clichés like,

“Wish you were here,

Come back again, my dear!

 

Don’t be “deep”—

Keep it “light”—

“Hello, Har!

You all right?

Anyway,

Nothing’s new…

Ev’ry now and then I still think of you.”

 

Then make some Xes

And plenty of Os.

(Don’t you be stingy,

I really like those!)

Sign it, and mail it

As soon as you can

And I’ll write you back again!

 

You know, it’s never easy

To sing you songs and say good-bye.

Part of me stays behind.

When I try to sleep, you’ll be in my mind.

 

Well, that’s the show

And here’s my last bow.

Hard to believe,

But it’s time to say, “Ciao!”

 

God bless you all,

You’ll be in my pray’rs.

Promise you’ll write.

Take care.
