Those Old Love Letters From You

I came upon a bundle of letters one day
I had in my mind to throw them away
But I broke the faded ribbon before I thought again
I opened up the first one when I noticed your name

There were many many pages all about old times
The blurs from your lonely tears were covered up by mine
I heard your voice again love I saw your sweet lips move
When I read the words I love you I said I love you too

Why did I keep those old love letters
I had almost forgotten you
Why did I read those old love letters
Those old love letters from you

[ guitar - fiddle ]
I'll burn the old love letters the ones that you're part of
I'll take a spade and bury deep the ashes of love
I'm trying to forget you though I know there's no use
Cause when you love somebody that feeling's hard to lose

Why did I read those old love letters...
