Текст песни Rosewood Casket

(Avie Lee Parton)

There's a little rosewood casket
Resting on a marble stand
With a packet of old love letters
Written by my true love's hand.

Go and bring them to me sister
Read them o'er for me tonight
I have often tried but could not
For the tears that filled my eyes.

When I'm dead and in my casket
When I gently fall asleep
Fall asleep to wake in heavenEmmylou Harris - Rosewood Casket - http://ru.motolyrics.com/emmylou-harris/rosewood-casket-lyrics.html
Dearest sister do not weep.

Take his letters and his locket
Place them gently on my heart
But this golden ring that he gave me
From my finger never part.

There's a little rosewood casket
Resting on a marble stand
With a packet of old love letters
Written by my true love's hand.
