Today I burned your old love letters
B7 E
I burned them gently one by one
E
And as I light the flame I read it
B7 E E7
So I could see what you had done
A E
The first you wrote me was the sweetest
E B7
The last one broke my heart in two
E
Our love now lies among the embers
B7 E
In the ashes of your letter I am blue
E
As I burned your old love letters
B7 E
It brough back memories from the past
E
It told about you and your new love
B7 E E7
A love I knew could never last
A E
The first you wrote me was the sweetest
E B7
The last one broke my heart in two
E
As I light the flame I read it
B7 E
For I can say I still love you
