The Package Lyrics - Singles - Tim Rushlow

In '42 they fell in love, love at first sight 

In '43 they walked the aisle, a groom and his bride 

In '44 he went to war to fight for Uncle Sam 

How it tore his heart apart, he missed his precious Anne 

And when the doorbell rang 

You know it scared her so 

They handed her the package 

And this is what he wrote 

Here's a little something to help you get through 

I know it ain't much, but it was all that I could do 

My heart is with you and you know I love you still 

Until I'm holding you again, love will 

In '63 he was out of town, all flights delayed 

20 years of marriage, all the kids were home that day 

He did the best he could with the phone lines jammed 

How it tore his heart apart, he missed his precious Anne 

And when the doorbell rang 

You know it scared her so 

They handed her the package 

And this is what he wrote 

Here's a little something to help you get through 

I know it ain't much, but it was all that I could do 

My heart is with you and you know I love you still 

Until I'm holding you again, love will 

Just a single long stemmed rose 

With his letter tucked inside 

To show her she was in his heart 

Forever on his mind 

In '93 he was holding on with all his might 

He gave her one last wink and he passed on in the night 

Bill knew his time was short so he had a little plan 

He was saving something special for his precious Anne 

So when the doorbell rang 

Those old familiar notes 

They handed her the package 

And this is what he wrote 

Here's a little something to help you get through 

I know it ain't much, but it was all that I could do 

My heart is with you and you know I love you still 

Until I'm holding you again, love will 

(Love always will) 

Until I'm holding you again, love will
