She told him you forget in time
As the years went slowly by,
she still prayed upon his mind.
Kept her picture on his wall,
went half crazy now an d then.
But he still loved her through it all,
hoping she'd come back again.
Kept some letters by his bed
I went to see him just today
Oh, but I didn't see no tears
All dressed up to go away
First time I've 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
and we all wondered if she would,
and it kept running through my mind.
He stopped loving her today.
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they'll carry him away.
He stopped loving her today
Soon they'll carry him away
He stopped loving her today
