I've Enjoyed as Much of This as I Can Stand
Jim Reeves · International Jim Reeves/Good N Country [BMG Inter [2004]
You look lovelier tonight than I remember
I'm so glad I got to see you once again
I've enjoyed just sitting down and reminiscing
But I've enjoyed as much of this as I can stand.
There's so much more between us than this table
All those years, all those dreams, all those plans
Guess you know about me sayin' I still I love you
But I've enjoyed as much of this as I can stand.
--- Instrumental ---
So you say you're happy now you've found a new love
Tell him I said his a lucky, lucky man
No, I don't think I've had time to see his picture
I've enjoyed as much of this as I can stand.
There's so much more between us than this table
All those years, all those dreams, all those plans
Guess you know about me sayin' I still I love you
But I've enjoyed as much of this as I can stand...
