Artist/Band: George Jones
Lyrics for Song: The Day I Lose My Mind
Lyrics for Album: Only Duets Ever Recorded (w Melba Montgomery) [Mus [1972]



George Jones & Melba Montgomery



(The day I lose your memory

Is the day I lose my mind.)



Through a tear I stare at your picture

I can still feel your lips close to mine

The day I lose your memory

Is the day I lose my mind.



Late at night your voice still wakes me

I reach out with my arms open wide

The day I lose your memory

Is the day I lose my mind.



You're the one that I breathe for

You're still here even though you're away

You're the reason I'll wait for tomorrow

You're the reason I lived yesterday.



This old heart is broke down with sorrow

And I almost cried myself blind

The day I lose your memory

Is the day I lose my mind.



The day I lose your memory

Is the day I lose my mind...


The Day I Lose My Mind

George Jones delivers a haunting performance on 'The Day I Lose My Mind,' a track that exemplifies his mastery of the outlaw country sound. Recorded for the album 'Only Duets Ever Recorded (w Melba Montgomery) [Mus [1972],' the song features a duet with Melba Montgomery, showcasing the vocal interplay characteristic of Jones's later career. The recording captures the emotional depth and raw vulnerability that defined his discography during the early 1970s. Jones's baritone voice, often described as a 'singing cowboy,' conveys the heartache and resilience central to his body of work. This duet stands as a testament to his ability to blend personal narrative with musical tradition, creating a recording that remains a staple in his catalog of duets.
