Ricky Skaggs - Your Old Love Letters Lyrics
Today, I burned your old love letters;I burned them gently, one by one.And as I light the flame, I'd read it,So I could see what you had done.The first you wrote me was the sweetest:The last one broke my heart in two.Our love now lies among the embers,In the ashes of your letters tied in blue.--- Instrumental ---And as I burned your old love letters,It brought back mem'ries 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 light the flame, I'd read it,For I can say: "I still love you."--- Instrumental to fade ---
