Your Old Love Letters

(Johnny Bond)



Today I burned your old love letters

I burned them slowly one by one

Before I'd light the flame I'd read them

To try and find the wrong I done.



The first you wrote me was the sweetest

The last one broke my heart in two

And all alone I left you weeping

For the ashes of your letters tied in blue...

I Thought I Heard You Calling My Name

(Lee Emerson)



You said goodbye to me this morning

With only these words to explain

You said you've found someone you love better

But I still hear your voice call my name.



I thought I heard you calling my name

Funny I still feel this way

Your voice seemed so close but I knew that by now

You were many miles away...

One Way Ticket to the Blues

(Jimmie Dallas)



Once I thought your love I'd win

But your old flame showed up in town again

Now I know your love I'd lose

I've got a one way ticket to the blues.



I've got a one way ticket

To a world that's filled with tears

All my dreams and hopes are gone

We built up through the years.



Seems I can't win I always lose

I've got a one way ticket to the blues...
