Yo, turn my music up
Up some more, up some more
Up a little bit more

Mama always told me to be careful who I love
And daddy always told me make sure he's right
I always had my eyes on this one particular guy
I was too shy so I decided to write

I'm sending him a four page letter
And I enclosed it with a kiss
And when I write him he better get it on time
I'm sending him a four page letter (oh yeah)
And I enclosed it with a kiss
And when I write him he better get it on time

People always say that I've played myself for you
They say that you don't even notice me
(Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me)
Baby, when I get the nerve to come to you
Promise me that you won't diss me

I'm sending him a four page (four page) letter (letter)
And I enclosed it with a kiss (a kiss)
And when I write him he better (oh yeah) get it on time (he better)
I'm sending him a four page letter (oh, yes I am)
And I enclosed it with a kiss
And when I write him he better (he better) get it on time
(Oh, I'm writin' you)

I'm writing you a love letter tonight
You better keep watch 'cause the mailman's coming
(Oh, yes he is, oh, I)
I'm writing you (writing you) a love letter tonight (tonight)
You better keep watch 'cause the mailman's coming (I'm)

I'm sending him a four page letter
And I enclosed it with a kiss
And when I write him he better (he better) get it on time
And get it on time, baby
I'm sending him a four page letter
And I enclosed it with a kiss (a sweet)
And when I write him (kiss) he better
Get it on time (oh, my baby)

I'm sending him (oh yeah) a four page letter
And I enclosed it with a kiss (a kiss)
And when I write him he better get it on time
Get it on time, oh yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah, oh, ooh
Oh, yeah, yeah

I hope others will do the same for u.6:45 is the time she died pepz.plz do this for Aaliyah and remember her the way she wanted to be remembered.she was so talented.Remember her music, her voice,her personality.And let her spirit live on through her music.So listen to her music to day and pray for her family and friends.....If anybody was as moved by her music like i was you can write me at SSStarGoddess69. keep singin' in heaven Babygirl!!!!

    This song is about a girl who likes a boy but is to afraid to talk to him so she sends him a 4 pg letter to tell him how she feels about him. And she hopes he won't diss her.
