Why do you treat me as if I were only a friend
|
And what have I done that's made you so different and cold
|
Sometimes I wonder if you'll be contented again
|
Will you be happy when you are withered and old
|
I cannot offer you diamonds or mansions so fine
|
I cannot offer you clothes your young body crave
|
But if you'll say that you long to forever be mine
|
Take off the heartaches the tears and the sorrow you'll save
|

|
Why I am writing this letter I think of the past
|
And of the promises that you are breaking so free
|
But to this world I will soon say my farewells at last
|
I will be gone when you read this last letter from me
|
