Old Love Letters

1
Today I burned your old love letters
5 1
I burned ’em gently one by one
 
And as I’d light the flame I’d read it
5 1
For I could see what you had done
 

4 1
The first you wrote me was the sweetest
5
The last one broke my heart in two
1
And as I’d light the flame I’d read it
5 1
For I can say I still love you
 

And as I burned your old love letters
It brought back memories from the past
It told about you and your new love
A love I knew could never last
