No Letter In The Mail

Bill Monroe · Country Music Legends [2007]

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
