He Stopped Loving Her Today Song Lyrics by George Jones
He said, “I’ll love you till I die”She told him, “You’ll forget in time”As the years went slowly byShe still preyed upon his mind
He kept her picture on his wallWent half crazy now and thenBut he still loved her through it allHoping she’d come back again
Kept some letters by his bedDated 1962He had underlined in redEvery single, I love you
I went to see him just todayOh, but I didn’t see no tearsAll dressed up to go awayFirst time I’d seen him smile in years
He stopped loving her todayThey placed a wreath upon his doorAnd soon they’ll carry him awayHe stopped loving her today
You know, she came to see him one last time (ooh)Ah, and we all wondered if she would (ooh)And it kept runnin’ through my mind (ooh)“This time he’s over her for good”
He stopped loving her todayThey placed a wreath upon his doorAnd soon they’ll carry him awayHe stopped loving her today
