Last Letter — текст песни (Tommy Collins)

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