Your Old Love Letters

Today, I burned your old love letters

I burned them gently, one by one

And as I light the flame, I'd read it

So I could see what you had done

The first you wrote me was the sweetest

The last one broke my heart in two

Our love now lies among the embers

In the ashes of your letters tied in blue

And as I burned your old love letters

It brought back mem'ries from the past

It told about you and your new love

A love I knew could never last

The first you wrote me was the sweetest

The last one broke my heart in two

And as I light the flame, I'd read it

For I can say: "I still love you"
