Letters From You - Maximilian Hecker

Since I’ve read your lines

Words that taste like wine

All my ache has been shed with a shrug

Summer’s in my heart

Although we are apart

Feels like I have been cured by some drug

Letters from you

Like a hose of sweet wine

An umbilical cord to your world

And I’m drinking rashly

To ease my longing

I am swigging all of your words

In no time at all

And long before nightfall

I will write back to slake your great thirst

Drink, my girl, oh, drink

Drink until you sink

And let my letters wipe out your curse
