Old love letters

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


    The first you wrote me was the sweetest
    The last one broke my heart in two
    And as I light the flame I read it
    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 know could never last
