Today I burned your old love letters. Burned them gently one by one Before I'd light the flame I'd read it To try and find the wrong I've done
The first you wrote me was the sweetest The last one broke my heart in two Our love is there among the embers Of the ashes of your letters tied in blue
Today I burned your old love letters I watched our love 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 embers Of the ashes of your letters tied in blue.
