Hi Snuffy, "sorry it's not the song, but here is just some words   
to the one I'm searchin...
"Love Entered The Iron Door" by Hank Snow.
You tell me in your letter sweetheart
that we can never wed........
to make you my bride would hurt their pride.

............with me because I am poor
and they lock you in a cell behind the cold Iron door
.......
Thank God my love for you at last
was entered behind the cold Iron Door.
I'm hoping somebody will pick up on this little bit..LOL.

God Bless.

The song is on the cd "I'm Movin' On," Country Stars label, released in 2001 and still in print. Don't have it, but someone here might.

The lyrics to one of the requested songs have been posted in another thread. See Lyr Req: Love Entered the Iron Door (Hank Snow).

"Golden curls in a cradle of rosewood" is actually a line from the following song:

Lyrics copied from HankSnow.com:


BROKEN DREAMS
Hank Snow

I'm longing for you, little darling,
For you promised that we'd never part.
I've tried all in vain to forget you,
Though forever you'll be in my heart.
I'd forget ev'ry tear I have shed, dear,
For you, ev'ry day that's gone by.
I'd forgive ev'ry heartache you caused me,
And each time that you made me cry.

As shadows of night steal around me,
And the pale moon in heaven turns blue,
With tears in my eyes I am longing
For the days when our romance was new.
They say you will soon wed another,
But, darling, I'll wait till the end,
And hope that someday you'll return, dear,
And start life all over again.

The plans that we made have been broken.
A garden, a cottage for two,
Golden curls in a cradle of rosewood,
Are dreams that will never come true.
Although you have gone and I'm weary,
And life is a failure, it seems,
Though, sweetheart, there's one consolation:
You'll be mine though it's only in dreams.
