After Losing You
Jim Ed Brown and the Browns · The Three Bells [Bear Family] [1993]
All the things we used to do
All these things are in the past now
After losing you.
Now my life's just one big heartache
And my world is turning blue
I've gotta hurt I can't get over
After losing you.
I go to the places we used to go
Just hopin' to get a glimpse of you
And everytime I see you with your new love
It hurts me and breaks my heart in too.
I thought no one could come between us
For you said you loved me true
You've put me down I went to pieces
After losing you.
I thought no one could come...
