Today I burned your old love letters I burned them slowly one by one
|
Before I'd light the flame I'd read them to try and find the wrongs I done
|
The first you wrote me was the sweetest the last one broke my heart in two
|
And all alone I left you weeping for the ashes of your letters tied in blue
|
[ guitar ]
|
As I burned your old love letters I watched my dreams go up in smoke
|
I lived again those precious mem'ries I heard each tender word you spoke
|
The first you wrote me was the sweetest the last one said that we were through
|
Our love is there among the ambers in the ashes of your letters tied in blue
|
