Old Love Letters Lyrics

Stanley Brothers Old Love Letters

Today I burned your old love letters
I burned 'em 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'd light the flame I'd 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 knew could never last

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