For 'tis hard to be parted from those we adore, When we know that our heart's in their keeping ; And daytime and nighttime we're wondering, if They're happy and laughing, or weeping! I have twisted and turn'd it and turn'd it again, And my feelings were strange, but delighting, Then I stole in a corner where no one could see, And I found myself kissing the writing, For the hand that inscribed it was often in mine, In the long winter nights that are missing, Sure I knew that a pair of sweet lips, touched the stamp, So you see I had reasons for kissing! You are welcome to me as the sun after rain, Ev'ry stroke of the pen brings a blessing. Yet the letter unopen'd still lies in my hand, And at what it contains I am guessing, Is it love and bright hopes of the future it brings Or bears it a message of sorrow, I'm living in happy uncertainty now, So the letter may wait till tomorrow! Chorus Tis a letter from Ireland directed to me, Will my heart sink with sorrow, or bound up with glee? There are tears in my eyes when the postmark I see on the letter that comes from old Ireland!"},{"label":"Spencer Subject","value":["Ethnic - Irish.","Piano.","Vocal."]},{"label":"Cover Art Description","value":"white ; black lettering."},{"label":"Instrumentation","value":["voice","piano"]},{"label":"First line of chorus","value":"Tis a letter from Ireland directed to me."},{"label":"First line of verse","value":"Tis a letter from Ireland from over the sea."},{"label":"Statement of Responsibility","value":"written and composed by J.F.
