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 was there among embers
In the ashes of your letters
Today I burned your old love letters
I watched our love go up in smoke
I live again each precious memory
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
In the ashes of your letters
The first you wrote me was the sweetest
The last one said that we were through
Our love is there among the embers
In the ashes of your letters
