Lyrics for Song: He Stopped Loving Her Today
Lyrics for Album: Unearthed [2003]
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 prayed upon his mind
He kept her picture on the wall
Went half crazy now and then
He still loved her through it all
Hopin' 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
He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they'll carry him away
He stopped loving her today
You know, she came to see him one last time
Oh, and we all wondered if she would
And it kept runnin' through my mind
This time he's over her for good
He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
Soon they'll carry him away
He stopped loving her today
