Porter Wagoner - Medley: lyrics

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

[ steel ]

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

[ guitar ]

ONE WAY TICKET TO THE BLUES

(Jimmie Dallas)

« © '61 copyright control »

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
