(verse 1)
Today I burned your old love letters,
I burned them gently one by one,
And as I light the flame I read it,
So I could see what you had done,
(chorus)
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 letter, I am blue,
(verse 2 )
As I burned your old love letters,
It brough back memories from the past,
It told about you and your new love,
A love I knew could never last,
(chorus)
The first you wrote me was the sweetest,
The last one broke my heart in two,
As I light the flame I read it,
For I can say I still love you,
Today I burned your old love letters,
I burned them gently one by one,
And as I light the flame I read it,
So I could see what you had done,
(chorus)
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 letter, I am blue,
(verse 2 )
As I burned your old love letters,
It brough back memories from the past,
It told about you and your new love,
A love I knew could never last,
(chorus)
The first you wrote me was the sweetest,
The last one broke my heart in two,
As I light the flame I read it,
For I can say I still love you,
