Jim Reeves - Your Old Love Letters lyrics

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 is there among the embers

Of the ashes of your letters tied in blue

Today I burned your old love letters

I watched our love go up in smoke

I lived again those precious mem'ries

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

Of the ashes of your letters tied in blue
