Joe Firstman - Can't Stop Loving You lyrics

She was fading Couldn't save her with my cursing At the laughing Lord in his golden chair She said "Leave me alone boy Can't you see I'm dying here" And the chapel was as empty as the bus station on Sunday And she was sad in her rented gown And the preacher had his stock quotes Hiding behind our wedding notes And his shares were going down I can't stop loving you baby But I can't stop hating myself I can't stop loving you baby But I can't stop hating myself So I stole her sunflowers hours before the service She was nervous and I was broke I couldn't be seen as I slipped between Some warm Jim Beam and my petticoat Didn't hear from her family They were somewhere between San Fran and San Antone Oh, sweet Lord had his mercy When he cursed me with a woman And I was damn sure happy being alone I can't stop loving you baby But I can't stop hating myself I can't stop loving you baby But I can't stop hating myself I didn't have the courage to tell her I was nervous And I was worthless to the bone She was laughing like a siren through the service 'Cause she knew that I hated being alone Baby was a bruiser But she was the only girl I had ever known I can't stop loving you baby But I can't stop hating myself I can't stop loving you baby But I can't stop hating myself I can't stop loving you baby But I can't stop hating myself I can't stop loving you baby But I can't stop hating myself
