Don't Read the Letter - Patti Page

Oh don’t read the letter I wrote you

Paying no mind to the things that I said

Don’t read the letter I wrote you

Just tear it to pieces instead

After we quarrelled last evening

I wrote you a note of goodbye

Then when you called me this morning

I sat down and started to cry

Ran down the street to the mailman

And asked him, «Oh what should I do?»

He told me I could do nothing

'Cause he just gave my letter to you

I know that I acted hastily

Yes my words were heartless and cruel

Is it too late to be sorry?

Forgive me for being a fool
