    I read all the lett - ers,         I read each word...  that you've sent to me,
                 Bm7       Bm7/A           Gmaj7             F#m7
And, though it's past now,        and your words... start to fade,
         Gmaj7                       F#m7
All the memories I have... still re - main!

It's 'cause you've gone now,        but a heart... a heart still re - mains,
         Gmaj7                           F#m7
And it'll be... here, if you--- come a - gain!

     You see, I'd heard the ru - mours,

        Bm7         Bm7/A       Gmaj7  G6                 F#m7
Seems I was wrong,        but I love...    I love you the same,
              Gmaj7           G6                   Dmaj9/A
And that's the one thing that you... can't take a - way,
