The Answer to ''The Last Letter''

(Rex Griffin)



I just received your last letter and I feel so blue

I'm paying dearly for promises broken so free

I never dreamed that there'd be such a longing for you

But I'm been no angel so I've got what's coming to me.



I am so weary and tired of another's caress

Though I would love to be with you I know it's too late

But I still love you and that is one thing I'll confess

I know I deserve to be punished whatever my fate.

I'd give all these diamonds if I could be happy again

And have you hold me and tell me that we'd never part

Diamonds can never replace a true sweetheart or friend

All of this glamor can't banish the ache in my heart.



All I have left is a dream of the days that are gone

All I have left is a mem'ry that never will fade

If you must leave me to suffer life's heartaches alone

I ask your forgiveness for all the mistakes I have made...
