No answer to my love letter
To sooth my achin' 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 broke your heart
And then I'll sign 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, travelin' milestone
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
