He Stopped Loving Her Today Lyrics

He said I'll love you 'til I die
She told him, "You'll forget in time"
And as the years went slowly by
She still preyed upon his mind

He kept her picture on his wall
Went half crazy now and then
But he still loved her through it all
He kept hoping she'd come back again

Found love letters by his bed
Dated 1962
He had underlined in red
Every single I love you

I went to see my friend today
Oh, and I didn't see no tears
He was all dressed up to go away
[ George Jones Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
First time I'd seen him smile on years

He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they'll carry him away
But he stopped loving her today

You know, she came back today for very last time
Ohh, and we all wondered if she would
And it kept running through my mind
Well this time, he's over her for good

And he stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
Soon they'll carry him away
He stopped loving her today

He said I'll love you 'til I die
She told him, "You'll forget in time"
And as the years went slowly by
