I just received your last letter and I feel so blue I'm paying dearly for promises broken so free I never dreamed that there'd be such a longing for you But I've been no angel so I've got what's coming to me
I am so weary and tired of another's caress Though I would love to be with you I know it's too late But I still love you and that is one thing I'll confess I know I deserve to be punished whatever my fate
I'd give all these diamonds if I could be happy again And have you hold me and tell me that we'd never part Diamonds can never replace a true sweetheart or friend All of this glamor can't banish the ache in my heart
All I have left is a dream of the days that are gone All I have left is a mem'ry that never will fade If you must leave me to suffer life's heartaches alone I ask your forgiveness for all the mistakes I have made
