(You know folks started dance to the country music a long time ago
And it all started back in west Texas
When they gathered somebody's house on Saturday night and have a big dance
And the fellow that created the whole thing was Bob Wills
But Bob played the fiddle and fiddled along this time he did it all by himself
But he finally made enough money to hire a band ha ha one guitar
But he didn't stop there because he went on to create and organize
The biggest and most famous western dance band in the whole world
Bob Wills And The Texas Playboys)

As I look at the letters that you wrote to me it's you that I am thinking of
As I read the lines that to me were so sweet I remember our faded love
I miss you darling more and more every day as heaven would miss the stars above
And with every heartbeat I still think of you and remember our faded love
I think of the past and all the treasures we've had
As we watch the mating of the dove
It was in the springtime when we said goodbye I remember our faded love
I miss you darling...
