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 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
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
Dejó de amarla hoy
Él dijo, te amaré hasta que muera
Ella le dijo, lo olvidarás con el tiempo
A medida que pasaban los años lentamente
Ella seguía acechando su mente
Tenía su foto en la pared
Se volvía medio loco de vez en cuando
Él todavía la amaba a pesar de todo
Esperando que ella regresara de nuevo
Guardaba algunas cartas junto a su cama
Con fecha de 1962
Y había subrayado en rojo
Cada te amo
Oh, fui a verlo hoy
Oh, pero no vi lágrimas
Todo vestido para irse
La primera vez que lo vi sonreír en años
Dejó de amarla hoy
Colocaron una corona en su puerta
Y pronto lo llevarán lejos
Dejó de amarla hoy
Sabes que ella vino a verlo una última vez
Todos nos preguntábamos si lo haría
Y seguía rondando por mi mente
Esta vez él la ha superado para siempre
Dejó de amarla hoy
Colocaron una corona en su puerta
Pronto lo llevarán lejos
Dejó de amarla hoy
