Why do you treat me as if I were only a friend
What have I done that's made you so different and
cold
Sometimes I wonder if you'll be contented
again
Or will you be happy when you are withered and
old
I cannot offer you diamonds and mansions so
fine
And I cannot offer you clothes that your young
body craves
But if you'll say that you long to forever be
mine
Just take off the heartaches the tears and this
sorrow you'll save
When you are weary and tired of another man's
gold
And when you get lonely remember this letter my
own
But don't try to answer though I've suffered
anguish untold
If you don't love me then why don't you leave me
alone
As I am writing this letter I think of the
past
And of the promises that you are breaking so
free
But to this old world I'll soon say my farewell
at last
I will be gone when you read this last letter
from me
