I AM AN UNREPENTANT CLASSIC COUNTRY MUSIC FAN. MOST CLASSIC COUNTRY TELLS A STORY. GEORGE JONES IS ONE OF THE ALL-TIME GREATS.
YOU CAN WATCH HIM SING THIS SONG ON YOU TUBE. THE LYRICS RESONATE WITH ME. HOPE YOU LIKE THEM ALSO:
HE STOPPED LOVING HER TODAY
Written by R. V. Braddock and C. Putman, Jr.
He said I'll love you 'til I die
She told him you'll forget in time
As the years went slowly by
She still preyed upon his mind
He kept her picture on his wall
Went half crazy now and then
He still loved her through it all
Hoping she'd come back again
Kept some letters by his bed
Dated 1962
He had underlined in red
Every single I love you
I went to see him just today
Oh but I didn't see no tears
All dressed up to go away
First time I'd seen him smile in years
(Chorus)
He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they'll carry him away
He stopped loving her today
(Spoken)
You know she came to see him one last time
Oh and we all wondered if she would
And it kept running through my mind
This time he's over her for good
(Repeat Chorus)
PERSONAL NOTE: FEW THINGS IN LIFE ARE WORSE THAN A ONE-SIDED ROMANCE.
