The Letter I Never Mailed

I wrote you a letter sweetheart
        I wrote you a letter in sorrow
        It never go mailed that heart of mine faile
        And it wrecked my hope tomorrow

In past days I've grown dear to love you
With the love we both need so bad
The good lord above made me fall in love
But I wish that he never had

* Refrain

I should have mailed you that letter
I still wish so bad that you knew
Maybe some day when tears got in the way
Then I'll break down and tell you

* Refrain
