Too Soon to Know
Jim Ed Brown and the Browns · The Three Bells [Bear Family] [1993]
It's too soon to know if I can forget her
My heart's been broken into many pieces
And it's too soon to know.
Time passes slow, will I ever know
If I can forget her and not let it show
But it's too soon to know.
News travels fast when a love affair ends
People keep asking what happened to them
But it's too soon to know if I can forget her
My heart's been broken into many pieces
And it's too soon to know.
Time passes slow, will I ever know
If I can forget her and not let it show
But it's too soon to know...

This track stands as a testament to the artist's ability to convey spiritual urgency and human connection through his distinctive voice and the group's tight harmonies, cementing its place in the canon of classic gospel recordings.
