Bill Monroe - No Letter In The Mail lyrics

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
