I saved every letter you wrote me

From the moment I saw you

I knew you were mine, you said you were mine

I thought you were mine

Do you know what Angelica said

When I told her what you'd done?

She said, you have married an Icarus

He has flown too close to the sun

Don't take another step in my direction

I can't be trusted around you

Don't think you can talk your way

Into my arms, into my arms

I'm burning the letters you wrote me

You can stand over there if you want

I don't know who you are

I have so much to learn

I'm re-reading your letters and watching them burn (Burn)

I'm watching them burn (Burn)

You published the letters she wrote to you

You told the whole world how you brought this girl into our bed

In clearing your name, you have ruined our lives

Heaven forbid someone whisper, he's part of some scheme

Your enemy whispers, so you have to scream

I know about whispers

I see how you look at my sister

Don't, I'm not naive

I have seen women around you

Don't think I don't see how they fall for your charms

All your charms

I'm erasing myself from the narrative

Let future historians wonder how Eliza reacted

When you broke her heart

You have thrown it all away, stand back, watch it burn

Just watch it all burn

And when the time comes, explain to the children

The pain and embarrassment

You put their mother through

When will you learn

That they are your legacy?

We are your legacy

If you thought you were mine (Mine, mine)

Don't
