Leann Rimes - 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 He still loved her through it all Hoping she'd come back again Kept some letters by his bed Dated 1962 And he had underlined in red Every single 'I love you' Oh, I went to see him just today Oh, but I didn't see no tears All dressed up to go away First time I'd seen him smile in years He stopped loving her today They placed a wreath upon his door And soon they'll carry him away He stopped loving her today Spoken: You know, she came to see him one last time We all wondered if she would And it kept running through my mind This time, he's over her for good He stopped loving her today They placed a wreath upon his door Soon they'll carry him away He stopped loving her today
