SHE STOPPED LOVING YOU TODAY

SHE STOPPED LOVING YOU TODAY


She said "I'll miss you til I die
Time alone won't make me stop
And as the years go slowly by
They don't sell that big a mop
To dry my eyes when you're gone
To ever stop the pain
Loving and now losing you
The sting of death remain's."

She kept his photos all lined up
And when each day was done
She thanked God for giving her
A daughter and a son;
All the letters he had kept
She read aloud again
And saw the red "I LOVE YOU'S"
He'd underlined with pen.

She went to see him that last day
But no-one saw her cry
For yesterday was dead and gone
And her eyes stayed very dry;
But when she knelt by his grave
And realized he was dead
She wanted to join him there
But came back home instead.

She stopped loving you today
Because it's killing her
To look at all the photos
From nineteen sixty four;
Since you chose the bottle
Her life ain't been the same
The only thing you did for her
Was to change her name.

She stopped loving you today.........
