Burning all my letters in a drunken rage - the last straw!

lyrics

Why the hell did you burn all my letters?
Why the hell did you burn all those letters?
Did you think it would make you feel better?
Letters from lovers, letters from family
Letters from long lost friends who used to write to me
Your jealousy was burning like a naked flame
My past life can’t hurt you, you know it’s not to blame
Why the hell did you burn all my letters?
Why the hell did you burn all those letters?
Did you think it would make you feel better?

Your drinking drove me crazy, that whiskey made you mad
But your loving was like honey spread all across my bread
There was just too much bitterness messing with your head
And burning all my letters killed my love stone dead, stone dead

Why the hell did you burn all my letters?
Why the hell did you burn all those letters?
Did you think it would make you feel better?
Pretty picture postcards and special birthday notes
Memories of loving and poems my friends wrote
Personal or impersonal you didn’t seem to care
You just burned everything that you found there
Why the hell did you burn all my letters?
Why the hell did you burn all my letters?
Did you think it would make you feel better?

Your drinking drove me crazy, that whiskey made you mad
But your loving was like honey spread all across my bread
There was just too much bitterness messing with your head
And burning all my letters killed my love stone dead
