He Stopped Loving Her Today He said I'll love you 'til I die He kept her picture on his wall Kept some letters by his bed I went to see him just today He stopped loving her today You know she came to see him one last time He stopped loving her today
George Jones
She told him you'll forget in time
As the years went slowly by
She still preyed upon his mind
Went half crazy now and then
He still loved her through it all
Hoping she'd come back again
Dated 1962
He had underlined in red
Every single I love you
Oh but I didn't see no tears
All dressed up to go away
First time I'd seen him smile in years
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they'll carry him away
He stopped loving her today
Oh and we all wondered if she would
And it kept running through my mind
This time he's over her for good
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they'll carry him away
He stopped loving her today
