Looking thru old love letters
That once made me happy and gay;
But now my heart is breaking
For the love of yesterday

Reading those old love letters
Recalls to me memories;
Faded and gone from the picture
Just like by gone melodies;
Tho' they're just old love letters
Tied up in a string of blue;
The pages recall, when you were my all
Love letters bring mem'ries of you

You said goodbye, we parted
And now I am lonesome and blue;
You left me broken hearted
With these letters dear, from you

Reading those old love letters
Recalls to me memories;
Faded and gone from the picture
Just like by gone melodies;
Tho' they're just old love letters
Tied up in a string of blue;
The pages recall, when you were my all
Love letters bring mem'ries of you
