As the music world continues to mourn the Prince‘s unexpected death last week, Suzanne Vega has unearthed a handwritten letter written by the music icon complimenting her 1987 hit “Luka.”

The letter calls her “Dearest Suzanne” and says, “Luka is the most compelling piece of music I’ve heard in a long time. There are no words 2 tell you all the things I feel when I hear it. I thank God 4 u.” It also includes a nice doodle of a flower.
