    Thank you for reminding me how much I love this song. Added to my playlist! Stevie B is the king of the music genre called "Freestyle." This is his biggest hit but he has some other great songs too.

    A very lovely reaction ❤📬! Because I Love You (The Postman Song) was released as the second single from Stevie B's 1990 album: Love & Emotion. It was written by Warren Allen Brooks. It was produced by Stevie B. The song reached #1 on the Hot 100 and #1 on the Adult Contemporary chart. No info on the music video available. The song was featured on the movie soundtrack for the 2014 film: The Guest, starring Dan Stevens, Lance Reddick and Shelia Kelley. In August 2018, Billboard ranked the song the 71st-biggest hit in the history of the Hot 100.
    The song was penned by Stevie B's friend, Warren Allen Brooks. In the song, Stevie B gets a letter in the mail, and in response, writes a song to express his love to the sender. "People think this song about a man trying desperately to hold on to his girl, but it's not", Warren Allen Brooks told Songfacts. "It's a spiritual song. It's about me and God having a conversation, and God telling me that he got my letter and he'd be with me any time I needed him".
    The song dates back to 1983, when Warren Allen Brooks came up with the first verse. In 1985, he and Stevie B formed a duo called: Friday Friday, that released a single: "Boy Toy". Warren Allen Brooks played what he had of the song: "Because I Love You (The Postman Song)", to Stevie B back then, but the song wasn't finished.
    A few years later, Stevie B made an impact on the Freestyle music scene with songs he wrote himself, including: "Spring Love (Come Back To Me)" and "In My Eyes". He and Warren Allen Brooks reconnected in 1989, and when they started working together, the first song Stevie B asked about was the song: "Because I Love You (The Postman Song)". Warren Allen Brooks finished the song and Stevie B recorded it, landing a surprise hit. Warren Allen Brooks also wrote Stevie B's hit song: "Love & Emotion."
    Warren Allen Brooks played all the instruments on the track. The piano is a Korg M1 synthesizer, which doesn't sound very synthetic. "It doesn't sound electronic because that's the way I played it," Brooks told Songfacts. "That's me. I'm gifted".
    This is a rare song with a subtitle that appears just once in the verse section of the lyrics. The opening lyrics: "I got your letter from the postman just the other day", proved to be a powerful phrase. The song became better known as: "The Postman Song", instead of the more common song title: "Because I Love You".
    In 1991, Hong Kong singer Alex To and Hacken Lee covered this song in Cantonese.
    In 1992, saxophonist Richard Elliot covered the song from his album: Soul Embrace.
    In 1999, American-German singer Ray Horton covered the song on his album: "First Time", and released the song as a single. The song was re-released in 2012 as digital download by Booya Records.
    In 2002, German disc jockey and electronic music producer Marko Albrecht (mostly known as Mark 'Oh) covered this song on his single album: "Because I Love You: Mark'Oh Meets Digital Rockers".
    Lyrics 🗒:
    I got your letter from the postman just the other day
    And so I decided to write you this song
    Just to let you know, exactly the way I feel
    To let you know my love's so real
    Because I love you, I'll do anything
    I'll give you my heart, my everything
    Because I love you, I'll be right by your side
    To be a light, to be your guide
    If you should feel that I don't really care
    And that you're starting to lose ground
    Let me reassure you that you can count on me
    And that I'll always be around
    Because I love you, my heart's an open door
    So won't you please come on in
    Because I love you, I'll be right by your side
    To be a light, to be your guide
