"Sealed with a Kiss" is a song written and composed by Peter Udell and Gary Geld. The original recording of "Sealed with a Kiss" was by the Four Voices which was released as a single in May 1960 without becoming a hit. It first became a hit in 1962 for Brian Hyland and later Jason Donovan had an international number one hit with the song in 1989.
The lyrics are from the point of view of one of two young lovers who have had to part ways over the summer, with narrator promising to send his love and dreams in daily letters "sealed with a kiss". They also bind each other to a pledge, under seal of a kiss, that they will reunite in September.
