Albert Lee - Rosewood Casket Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
Go and bring them to me, sister
Read them o'er for me tonight
I have often tried, but I could not
For the tears that filled my eyes

[Verse 3]
When I'm dead and in my casket
When I gently fall asleep
Fall asleep to wake in heaven
Dearest sister, do not weep

[Verse 4]
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

[Verse 5]
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
