Il testo della Answer to the last letter

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
( fiddle )
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
