Jim Reeves - Before I Died lyrics

No need to say you're sorry No need to feel ashamed If I'm not the one you love Don't feel you're to blame. I don't deny it hurts me And this pain is hard to hide But at least I lived a little while Before I died. I lived long enough to know The sweet thrill of your lips I knew happiness Right down to my finger tips. You'll always be a part of me Though you can't be mine At least I lived a little while Before I died. --- Instrumental --- Don't ask me to forget you 'Cause you mean too much to me I couldn't even if I tried Too many memories. My yesterday's were happy days And each mem'ry's locked inside At least I lived a little while Before I died. I lived long enough to know The sweet thrill of your lips I knew happiness Right down to my finger tips. You'll always be a part of me And though you can't be mine At least I lived a little while Before I died...
