Love Letter (恋文, Koibumi) is the 31st studio album by Japanese singer-songwriter Miyuki Nakajima, released in November 2003.

The lead-off track of the album "Ride on the Silver Dragon's Back" was featured as a theme song for the television drama series Dr. Coto's Clinic first aired on Fuji TV in July 2003.[1] A song was released as a single prior to the album, debuted at the number-four on the Oricon and remained on the chart for over 10 months. The album also includes her own rendition of the song "Kiss Old Memories Goodbye" which was initially recorded and released as a single by Kou Shibasaki. Original recording by Shibasaki was also featured on Dr.Coto which she acted the role of nurse.[2]

Some of the songs on the album like "Mirage Hotel" and "The Mistress' Testimony" were also performed on her musical Yakai Vol.14 "24-Ji Chaku 0-Ji Hatsu", which was mounted at the Bunkamura Theatre Cocoon in January 2004 and later released on DVD.
