patty loveless
she never stopped loving him
She used to sit and stare and dream that he was there But she quit that She made up her mind that someday she'd be fine And she meant that And she stopped drivin' by their old place Now it's not that she don't know the way She just stopped, cause she had all she could take But she never stopped lovin' him  There's a place deep in her soul, a place she'll always hold Only for him Still, she gets down on her knees, prays that she won't be Lonely for him And she stopped, no matter how hard she tried She never stopped lovin' him  All the time they were together He was all she ever needed in this world but still somehow There were things she didn't tell him She's gonna tell him now  The leaves are off the trees And the snow is awfully deep for December She walks right up to him, she can't quite find the words But they're in there So she stops and says "Since you've been gone I have thought how life must go on" Then she topped and placed a rose on his stone Then left him alone But she never stopped lovin' him
