[00:00.00]The Letter Edged In Black - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)
[00:06.56]I was standing by my window yesterday morning
[00:12.69]Without a thought of worry or of care
[00:18.43]When I saw the postman coming up the pathway
[00:24.48]When he handed me a letter edged in black
[00:30.67]Well He rang the bell and whistled as he waited
[00:36.92]Then he said;"Good morning to you Jack"
[00:42.53]But he little knew the sorrow he had brought me
[00:48.96]When he handed me a letter edged in black
[00:55.26]With trembling hand I took this letter from him
[01:01.50]I broke the seal and this is what it said:
[01:07.24]"Come home my boy your dear old father wants you
[01:13.48]Come home my boy your dear old mother's dead"
[01:20.36]The last words that your mother ever uttered
[01:26.12]Tell my boy I want him to come back
[01:32.51]My eyes are blurred my poor old heart is breaking I'm writing you this letter edged in black"
[01:44.55]I bowed my head in sorrow and in sadness The sunshine of my life it all had fled When the post man brought that letter yesterday morning
[02:02.85]"Saying come home my boy your dear old mother's dead"
[02:09.24]"Forget those angry words that wish i never spoken
[02:15.29]You know I never mean them don't you Jack
[02:20.97]May the angels bear as witness I am asking
[02:26.84]Your forgiveness in this letter edged in black"
