No answer to my letter To soothe my aching heart Oh, why did God ever permit True love like ours to part No letter in the mail today No answer from my love Nobody knows what I've been through No one but God above This is what I wrote to her I know that I'm to blame I know that I have broken your heart And then I signed my name No letter in the mail today No answer from my love Nobody knows what I've been through No one but God above I'm traveling down this road today Yes, traveling my last time If there's no letter in the box I'm leaving this world behind No letter in the mail today No answer from my love Nobody knows what I've been through No one but God above
