Artist/Band: Mel Tillis
Lyrics for Song: Sweetest Tie
Lyrics for Album: I Ain't Never [1972]



(Wayne P. Walker)



An empty mailbox and the silent telephone

Has quickly made me realize that something's wrong

While crazy thoughts go racing through my tangled mind

Too late I know the sweetest tie is the one I didn't bind.



Those long and lonely night I left you all alone

Those little thoughts of kindness that I'd never shown

Were things that seem so unimportant at the time

Too late I know the sweetest tie is the one I didn't bind



Oh Lord, if I could just reverse the hands of time

A million kisses for each heartache you would find

But I had my chance and I fell to see the morning sun

Too late I know the sweetest tie is the one I didn't bind.



Too late I know the sweetest tie is the one I didn't bind...
