Lyrics
Don't forget to open up your mail
You never know
There might be something you need to read
Oh-no, darling
Don't forget to open up your mail
You never know
There might be something you need to read
Oh-no, darling
No-no, honey
Yes-yes, sugar
No-no, honey
Yes-yes, sugar
No
When you're a sailor at sea, a traveler and sick of sleep
And you're moving around as much as I do
Everywhere that you go, there's someone who you could know
Who'd really like the chance to stay in touch with you
So don't forget to open up your mail
You never know
There might be something you need to read
Oh-no, darling
I'm on my way out the door to send a letter to you
'Cause being far away is making me kind of blue
You might not know for a while, but you're making me smile
As I'm walking down the sidewalk
Could it be, could it be
Somebody's been thinking of me (thinking of me)
Now I'm wondering what could be inside this unopened mail I've received
They could be bills to ignore or a birthday card
A letter from Michelle Obama
An overdue notice from the library
Or a message to me from future me
Maybe a lucky fanny
Or a brand-new microscope from my friend Jenny
Hey, what's your current address
I know I'm kind of a mess
It really can't be news, I'd like to stay in touch with you (stay in touch with you)
So don't forget to open up your mail
You never know
There might be something you need to read
Oh-no, darling
I'm on my way out the door to send a letter to you
'Cause being far away is making me kind of blue
You might not know for a while, but you're making me smile
As I'm walking down the sidewalk
So don't forget to open up your mail
You never know
There might be something you need
Darling
