walker county - handwritten lyrics

[intro]
i ran across this letter, written by my grandpa to my grandma in the spring of 1942 and it read

[verse 1]
“dear sweetheart
your letter made my day
i love the things you say
i miss you too”
“and dear sweetheart
i’d be the happiest man
if i could put a ring on your hand
when i get home in june”
and that’s just what he did

[chorus]
heart to the pen
pen to the page
page to an old envelope
no words are wasted or abbreviated
sent with god speed
so don’t you know
in this “i want it now” kind of world that we’re in
where everything’s ours in an instant
i want my love
i want my love
handwritten
[verse 2]
i believe
that every heart’s deserving
of being pursued in cursive
one “i love you” at a time
and i will be patient
’cause for the time that i wait for it
i know i’ll be rewarded
with something forever mine

[chorus]
it goes heart to the pen
pen to the page
page to an old envelope
no words are wasted or abbreviated
sent with god speed
so don’t you know
in this “i want it now” kind of world that we’re in
where everything’s ours in an instant
i want my love
i want my love
handwritten

[chorus]
in this “i want it now” kind of world that we’re in
where everything’s ours in an instant
i want my love
i want my love
handwritten
oh, handwritten
