[Verse 1] I woke to the sound of a silver line, Light through the curtain, tracing mine. A letter lay there, warm and thin — Your voice came pouring in. [Chorus] Letters from the sun — they shine on me, Every word’s a melody. Oh, I can feel you where the light’s begun, Dancing in the letters from the sun. [Verse 2] You said, “Keep faith, the rain will end,” and signed it twice, “My love, my friend.” The ink ran gold where the teardrops fell, And the paper knew me well. [Bridge – Swing Groove, Piano + Handclaps] “Daylight spins its little rhyme, Carry me back to simpler times!” (Harmonies rise; Vox organ swells in counter-melody.) [Final Chorus] Letters from the sun — they shine on me, Every word’s a melody. If tomorrow fades, I’ll still be the one Writing you — letters from the sun. (Ends with cheerful piano riff, organ sustain, and a spoken “Alright now” fade.)
