An old love letter Marked return So wet with tears The paper won't burn Can't help wondering When I'll learn That I just loved her She was never mine to lose I can't lose What I never owned She was never mine Just mine alone Here I sit All alone Sad and blue Since she's gone No one to love me I'll call me own For I just loved her She was never mine to lose When my family All my friends Asked about her My troubles begin I can't tell them The misery I'm in That I just loved her She was never mine to lose Oh I just loved her She was never mine to lose
