I can`t answer her letter
For she left me no address
You should know my little darling
You left my poor heart in distress
I got a letter from my darling
She said she hated to go
It broke my heart the words she wrote me
She closed by saying I love you so
She wrote the words she knew would hurt me
She said I never could be true
I`ve tried I`ve tried my little darling
To prove my love was just for you
This letter meant goodbye forever
Though we`ll have each other`s hearts
Our love will fade away in sadness
Precious one why did we have to part
