Address Unknown
(written by C. Lombardo, J. Marks, & D.L. Hill, performed by Marty Robbins)
from the 1984 Columbia lp (KC2 39575) Long Long Ago

I waited each day for your letter
Although I knew what it would cost
The moment it came I knew that your game
Had been won and I knew that I had lost

I just didn't open your letter
I know you're no longer my own
The moment it came I wrote 'neath my name
These heartbreaking words, "Address Unknown"

I wanted to open your letter
To see if you missed me sometimes
But you have a way of making me pay
'Cause I know what you write between the lines

You know I'd be so glad to see you
In spite of the hurt you have done
But deep down inside I can't lose my pride
And forgive you just cause you're the one

So I just didn't open your letter
I know you're no longer my own
The moment it came I wrote 'neath my name
These heartbreaking words, "Address Unknown".
