Letterbox

She keeps her secrets
Inside a letterbox
Stores her treasures
Inside a letterbox

It’s with her everywhere she goes
What’s inside it no one knows
She guards it carefully and well
I’m underneath its spell

She hides her memories
Inside a letterbox
Makes me wonder
What’s inside that letterbox

All her dreams since she was young?
All the songs she’s ever sung?
Tender thoughts, poems too?
If I only knew

Cards and letters from her past?
Favourite rings and photographs?
All the wonders it contains
A mystery it remains

She keeps her secrets
Inside a letterbox
Makes me wonder
What’s inside that letterbox

If I could only look inside
At all the things she has to hide
Maybe then I’d get to know
What’s inside her soul

It’s with her everywhere she goes
What’s inside it no one knows
