Letter Edged in Black (黑色的字母) - Jim Reeves (吉姆·里夫斯)
I was standing by my window
Yesterday morning

Without a thought of sorrow or of care

When I saw the postman coming

Up the pathway
With such a smiling face and jolly air

He rang the bell and whistled
As he waited

Then he said Good morning
To you Jack

But he little knew the sorrow
That he brought me
When he handed me a letter
Edged in black

With trembling hands I took the letter
From him

I opened it and this is what it said

Come home my boy
Your dear old daddy wants you
Come home my boy
Your dear old mother's dead

The last words your mother ever uttered
Tell my boy I want him
To come back

My eyes are blurred
My poor old heart is breaking

As I'm writing you this letter

Edged in black

Those angry words I wish
I'd never spoken

You know I didn't mean them

Don't you Jack

May the angels bear me witness

I am asking
Your forgiveness in this letter
Edged in black
