He Stopped Loving Her Today
He said, "I'll love you 'til I die."
She told him, "You'll forget in time."
As the years went slowly by
She still prayed upon his mind
He kept her picture on the wall
Went half crazy now and then
But he still loved her through it all
Hoping she'd come back again
Kept some letters by his bed
Dated 1962
He had underlined in red
Every single 'I love you'
I went to see him just today
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
You know, she came to see him last time
And we were all wonderin' if she would
And it kept runnin' through my mind
This time he's over her for good
He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they'll carry him away
He stopped loving her today
Dejó de amarla hoy
Él dijo, 'Te amaré hasta que muera.'
Ella le dijo, 'Olvidarás con el tiempo.'
A medida que pasaban los años lentamente
Ella seguía rezando en su mente
Tenía su foto en la pared
Se volvía medio loco de vez en cuando
Pero aún la amaba a pesar de todo
Esperando que ella regresara de nuevo
Guardaba algunas cartas junto a su cama
Con fecha de 1962
Había subrayado en rojo
Cada 'te amo'
Fui a verlo hoy
Pero no vi lágrimas
Todo vestido para irse
Primera vez que lo veía sonreír en años
Dejó de amarla hoy
Colocaron una corona en su puerta
Y pronto lo llevarán lejos
Dejó de amarla hoy
Sabes, ella vino a verlo por última vez
Y todos nos preguntábamos si lo haría
Y seguía rondando en mi mente
Esta vez él la ha superado para siempre
Dejó de amarla hoy
Colocaron una corona en su puerta
Y pronto lo llevarán lejos
Dejó de amarla hoy
