When I Stop Dreaming
Emmylou Harris · Luxury Liner [Rhino Records] [2004]
(Charlie Louvin - Ira Louvin)
When I stop dreaming that's when I'll stop loving you
The worst that I've ever been hurt in my life
The first time I ever have wanted to die
Was the night when you told me you loved someone new
And you asked me if I could forget.
When I stop dreaming that's when I'll stop loving you
You may teach the flowers to bloom in the snow
You may take a pebble and teach it to grow
You may teach all the raindrops to return to the clouds
But you can't teach my heart to forget.
When I stop dreaming that's when I'll stop loving you.

When I stop dreaming that's when I'll stop loving you.
When I stop dreaming that's when I'll stop loving you.
When I stop dreaming that's when I'll stop loving you
The worst that I've ever been hurt in my life
The first time I ever have wanted to die
Was the night when you told me you loved someone new
And you asked me if I could forget.
When I stop dreaming that's when I'll stop loving you
You may teach the flowers to bloom in the snow
You may take a pebble and teach it to grow
You may teach all the raindrops to return to the clouds
But you can't teach my heart to forget.
When I stop dreaming that's when I'll stop loving you.

When I stop dreaming that's when I'll stop loving you.
When I stop dreaming that's when I'll stop loving you.
