My father passed away earlier this afternoon. 62 years old. Every Sunday he would make breakfast for us growing up, and he would have this album on cassette just playing on repeat and singing every word. My father is the reason I love Keith Whitley and country music the way that I do. Listening to this one loud as hell tonight for you old man. Hope you're singing along too.
😢Music will take you right back to those Sundays and you can reflect on those precious memories. Sorry for your loss.. May God bless you and your family ❤
I am not a country music guy by any means, very selective, BUT Keith Whitley made me into a fan. His voice, his music is timeless Country. The greatest of all-time👍 👌
This is one of the most heart-wrenching feelings.Of course i'm gonna rap watching somebody that you're desperately in love with being in love with and hurt over somebody else
Sometimes I need this music. We all have pain inside us and when we’re sitting all alone, well I believe a good cry helps with the stress,especially when you have no one to be with.
If you believe in Jesus, give your life to Him, He will transform you beyond what you can ever imagine. His Holy Spirit will indwell you and you will never, ever be alone. You will realize that this world is no longer your focus. Everything will change and your eternity will be secure in Heaven. Prayers to you in abundance 🙏🏻❤️
So sorry for ur dads passing. It’s never easy to lose someone we love. Hold ur memories close. ❤️🙏 Ur dad had great taste in songs this is def one of my top 3.
I sadly admit I was not aware of country music in the early 90s! There is a lot I have missed but no more! I have heard this song several times and today, 08/28/2021, I’ve declared this song and Keith Whitley my FAVORITE!♥️
@@angelagartenstein7975 Friends of mine and I went over all the best country songs and singers from Hank Williams to Luke Combs and we declared this the greatest country song of all time when we we were done.
@@cameronvelthuis1844 Yep that's what David Allen Coe and the writer believe. They're biased. My friends and I took months going over all the best country songs of every year from 1960 to now. Of course it's possible we got it wrong, but not for lack of effort. Hank Williams was before 1960 but we added him in.
I recently discovered Keith, and I have got to say, I haven't heard more emotion or pain from any other singers. Really tugs at your soul this stuff. Glad I found you Keith , better late than never, RIP
Yes same here,brotherly love is beautiful. Everytime I hear it I think about my big brother Nick who I lost in a tragic drowning accident 5 years ago. Wish I could go back in time.
My dad passed 3 years ago today. He used to sing this song all the time on his guitar. Was one of his favorite songs. My 12 year old daughter has been crying missing him so much . Breaks my heart he was an amazing person who put everyone fist. Miss you so much daddy think of you every day ❤luv you see you in heaven.
As a kentucky girl who's grown up on Keith, and loves him dearly I'm so thankful they finally gave him the recognition he so rightfully deserves Rest in peace Keith❤️

His life of addiction and death made for one hell of a sad documentary. He was absolutely brimming with talent and by all accounts was a super good guy. Those addiction demons are sure hard to shake.
Sadly many have internal demons that are just hard to shake or ever fully overcome, addiction being one of the worst. You try to live life as best as you can but sometimes theres no warning before those demons take hold and might take you all the way to your death bed.
Stay strong, go to therapy, talk to family or friends that love you. You deserve the best life can offer you. There are so many wonderful times ahead of you.
Yes.... I haven't watched the documentary but I lost both of my parents in the last like 5 months over addiction... It's terrible... I'm only 19 so it's hard. I really hate how drugs change the people you love.
How COOl is that, Ben!!...my daddy was a guitar player all his life (lead guitar and steel - gave up going to Nashville to stay and raise my brother and me, but always played music as his living)...he played with some amazing country artists. My daddy's where I got my LOVE for music!! LOVE this song and Keith's voice!
How many people are still in Love with someone from decades long ago ? Holding on to long lost memories , wondering if they ever think of You . Crazy this life we live .... never knowing
Goin on 12 years. Love at first sight. But we both had to grow as people. Those feelings have never faded on my part. I know she hates country. But she is the yin to my yang. My equal but my opposite.
Brian Holmes I know she thinks of me. She got engaged to some schmuck. You have people you look at and you don’t say it but you know they won’t make it. I know her well enough to know they won’t. When she has relationship problems she’s on Facebook a lot. She’s been on Facebook a lot lately. She’s admitted she has a bad problem with cheating. That tells me this is the beginning of the end for them.

@@gmandersonjr agreed we lost Keith Whitley to soon at the age of 33 years old when he passed away from alcohol poisoning is my favorite COUNTRY music singer number one and always will be number one
Hello,.Mr. Howerton. Wantd 2 reply 2 yor Nice Comment u made. I agree, Mr. Whitley's Voice & Singing. Is,Timeless.& Sure Wud,Be Nice,Hearing More of It. Like His. Its Be NICE. Surely.
*I'm into Jazz and R&B as a pianist, but this kind of music isn't even about the chords to me but the lyrics, something I usually never pay attention to. This music is beautiful.*
This song was sang deep from the heart ❤️ Ive been in recovery and will celebrate 8 years on January 21st. I can relate to his struggles with addiction. Through my time of self discovery and going through the physical/ Emotional sobriety, I have to say that there's very few artists that helped me through the hard times .. but Keith's story and his music inspired me to continue to "keep fighting the good fight." All is not lost, Your Victory is just beginning." I still take it one day at a time ❤ & I'm so grateful to have a 2nd chance at life again 💯❤️
Most definitely! Tim McGraw sung this at a Pittsburgh concert a few years back. Said it was one of the most influential songs for his music he could credit.
Keith was an amazing song writer and singer...this song is very powerful...and he does one hell of a job singing this song..it brings tears to my eyes everytime I hear this song!!!
He was a great singer and performer but he didn't write this or most of his other hits if any.. most older country musicians didnt write their own songs.
My all time favorite country song! I go to a lot of horse trail rides, and this is one of the most requested dance songs - especially by me. One of my horse buddies knew whenever this song was played, that he had to dance with me. Such a great voice, gone way to soon!
I found this song and it made me cry. Alcohol killed this poor guy. Being a good looking guy with all he had going for him and he drank himself to death. I haven't anything to offer anyone. I lost the only girl I ever loved and now I am supposed to start over at 48. Just doesnt feel like I'll be ok :'(
@@zeca5254xMarch 11, 2024 and beyond, even if I have to do it on RUclips, because even though Willie's Roadhouse specializes in traditional country music, they don't play ALL the old songs, and they play some songs that I don't remember listening to in the past.
Ted Unseth one of the G.O.A.T’s of country, he grew up about an hour away from me and sadly it seems he is extremely under appreciated today, he brought back that classic sound when country was going in a more pop direction
Ted Unseth i love his music as well just lost him to soon to alcohol addiction at the age of 34 years old when he passed away he was such a very talented man just lost him to soon and every song he sang there was a purpose for every song he sang there will never be another Keith Whitley the king of COUNTRY music singer number one and always will be number one and his music will always live on forever
My sons father sang this to me because our 12 year marriage was ending that was in 1996 God rest his soul he passed in 2013 at 64 from COPD. I still cry today over this
Scott Williams is TJ we never met but I love what you wrote and you made me smile and nobody really does that anymore I hope you're smiling too I hope life is being really good to you I hope you're staying safe and staying warm it's been a long cold winter now we're finally getting the snowyou seem like a really nice person you can tell a lot about the words of person rights it's almost like you have Windows into the eyes of their soul well I just want to let you know you made me smile thank you maybe I'll chat with you again on another day so long for now for Maine
THE GREATEST country voice to have EVER existed and will exist until the Lord himself comes back. His heart may stop beating but his memory will not die. Thanks for reading this 😁
He couldn’t have known it, but Keith Whitley was on his way to becoming a legend during the late 1980s resurgence of a more-traditional country music sound (though Whitley seldom wore a cowboy hat like many). Having worked with Ricky Skaggs in Ralph Stanley’s band as a teenager, Whitley had the voice and the chops for Nashville. The number-one title track from his 1988 album Don’t Close Your Eyes made him a bona fide country star, but he died of alcohol poisoning at 33 about a year after its release. A song about a man’s request for his partner to forget a previous paramour and make love with her eyes open, “Don’t Close Your Eyes” has since become a slow-dance classic in every honky-tonk and roadside bar. It was written by Bob McDill, the Nashville songwriting giant whose songs were recorded by Waylon Jennings, Pam Tillis and many others. Don’t close your eyes let it be me Don’t pretend it’s him in some fantasy Darling just once let yesterday go And you’ll find more love than you’ve ever known Just hold me tight when you love me tonight And don’t close your eyes The song would later be cut by Alan Jackson and, taking it from the female point of view, Kellie Pickler. Where most country singles from those days are now a fond memory, the “Don’t Close Your Eyes” single today is, almost inexplicably, one of that era’s strongest sellers digitally.
@Steve Cabral - Your observations are incredibly insightful. I remember seeing Keith's Harley in the front entrance area of the CM Hall of Fame in Nashville a few years ago. Sad to think of all he had to live for and yet he couldn't stand the pain of life as it was for him. :-( What a tragic loss for lovers of country music. I think the Harley in this video is the one I saw at CMHOF a few years ago... ruclips.net/video/xNU7iIdw7Ss/видео.html
Keith could have been among the greatest country artists ever. It just wasn't meant to be. Thank God for the sample we got. A great talent. RIP Mr. Whitley...
Probably one of country music greatest. Extremely underrated. He put his entire heart and soul in his music. You can actually feel the music deep inside your body. He left us way too soon. His music could make a cowboy shed tears. Fortunately his music will be around forever.
You know I was sitting in my car while my wife was shopping and I sang this..a lady stopped next to me and thanked me for singing it, she was crying and did it was so beautiful, her mom listened to KW quite often, made me feel kinda cool that someone else was appreciating his song.❤❤
We lost the one and only Keith Whitley 33 years ago today 9, May 1989 😢🙏🏼🕯️✝️🕯️🙏🏼 He absolutely had a one in a million singing voice 🎤🎶🎸 that his fans will never forget.
To me he has more emotion in his voice than almost any other male country singer, and thats saying alot. He makes it seem so easy, yet he still hits me hard in the feels when he sings. An all time great country voice.
Chris Wilson true very true we lost Keith Whitley to soon to alcohol addiction at the age of 34 years old when he passed away he was such a very talented person he learned the guitar at the age of 6 years old
Sad to say the music they play today will be called "Classic Country" 20 years from now. I'm so glad I grew up to 80's and 90's Country... I'd give anything to go back to those days.
I was born early 2000's but I grew up with real country. If people forget this beautiful music- it's their own loss 🤷♀️ sad to say that preservation isnt exactly easy with my generation... stubborn (and pretty hateful) I'd say I'm one of the only kids I know that has a listens to this: much less maintains a traditional mindset
Joe Dirt one the best songs describing my era is Mark Wills, 19 something. It’s probably not one I think about when I think about my favorite songs/artists (I can never decide between Conway Twitty and The King of Country, George Strait, and of corse, Reba!) but whenever I see or hear someone talking about how they miss the music they grew up, that one always comes to mind.
My great aunt passed away yesterday and Keith Whitley was her favorite. Moments before she passes my mother suggested to my cousin that maybe hearing some of her favorite music in her final moments would be good for her and make passing on easier. My cousin asked if she really believed she could still hear them and my mom said she did so my cousin played this song on her phone and laid the phone next to her head on the pillow. She passed on before it finished playing.
Lyrics I know you loved him, a long time ago Even now in my arms, you still want him I know But darling this time, your memories die When you hold me tonight, don't close your eyes Don't close your eyes, let it be me Don't pretend it's him, in some fantasy Darling just once, let yesterday go And you'll find more love than you'll ever know Just hold me tight, when you love me tonight And don't close your eyes Maybe I've, been a fool, holding on all this time Lying here in your arms, knowing he's in your mind But I keep hoping someday, that you'll see the light Let it be tonight and don't close your eyes Don't close your eyes, let it be me Don't pretend it's him, in some fantasy Darling just once, let yesterday go And you'll find more love than you'll ever know Just hold me tight, when you love me tonight And don't close your eyes Don't close your eyes, let it be me Don't pretend it's him, in some fantasy Darling just once, let yesterday go And you'll find more love than you'll ever know Just hold me tight, when you love me tonight And don't close your eyes Just hold me tight, when you love me tonight, And don't close your eyes

I am a 12 year old boy that grew up listening to 80s and 90s country, and a little rock. Keith is one of my all time favorite singers, and I will never stop playing his stuff
I agree with you and admire your good sense of humor, I guess you're a country music lover? you deserve a compliment How are you doing today? God bless you and your family
I love this song, there is someone out there that I loved so much but it didn't work out. I hope he is doing well and is happy, I still have days that I think of him and my heart just fills up for him.❤️😇🙏❤️😇🙏
There will never be another voice like Keith Whitley's voice. His voice had a richness and feeling that has never been heard before or since. There have been great singers and great voices that have graced country music, but nobody ever sang like Keith Whitley. RIP
You sir are exactly right. Keith Whitley had a true gift from God and was taken way too soon from us. He had so much more to give us but it was cut way too short. RIP Keith Whitley.
His and Lori Morgan's son sounds a lot like his Daddy. His voice is just a little bit rougher than Keith's but other than that they sound a lot alike. Especially when he sings the song his Dad wrote "Tell Lori I Love Her"
Keith Whitley would have been a superstar if it wasn’t for his demons. But he will always be remembered for the amazing music he made in his short life. This song may have been his best.
Me too, thanks... Happy New Year from my family to yours, I wish you all the best in the New Year 2023. I hope that the coming year is full of amazing opportunities and experiences for you.
Wait til your 37 and you admit to yourself that the Love of Your Life "settled" for you but their heart belongs to someone else who is long gone but their memory lives on In Your Relationship 😢
I'm so sorry, I can't even imagine how you feel. That's got to be a hard pill to swallow. I made a very big mistake & remarried after me & the love of my life went our separate ways. It didn't work out, I compared everything he did to my true love. I just couldn't stand even being with him, much less him touching me. And when our divorce was made finale I remarried the love of my life. What he thought he wanted he realized he didn't . True love just doesn't die, a divorce decree doesn't change a heart just one's life. I heard it took a long time for the other man to get over me. And I have always felt so bad about it. I pray that he did find his one true love & had a very happy life. I am sorry I hurt him. This song makes me go back to that time & how he must have felt because he knew my heart & soul still belonged to my only true love. I've been in love with this man for 49 years. He was killed in a car wreck in 2003 & he was only 44. We both remarried but we both were still very much in love with each other. He told me just a few years before he passed that I was his soulmate & that I was the only one that really knew him at all. I'm 67 now & never remarried. He is my soulmate, the love of my life & I know he's waiting on me in Heaven to cross over to be with him again only this time for all eternity. God bless you at least she stayed with you & you got to love her. She has to have some love for you & care about you or she would've never stayed . Please believe that. 😔
Wish that he didn't cut his life so short he had everything going for him lost him to soon to alcohol poisoning at the age of 33 years old when he passed away his music will always lives on forever
@@cnc90210 i can too lost him to soon to alcohol addiction at the age of 33 years old when he passed away his music will always lives on forever my favorite COUNTRY music singer and always will be
So sad that alcohol silence this wonderful voice and talent. Lying silent in the grave, just heart breaking. I have a son who played guitar and sang and drank himself to death. Now I have to live out my life never hearing his voice again!
I agree with you and admire your good sense of humor, I guess you're a country music lover? you deserve a compliment How are you doing today? God bless you and your family
I lived through the 90s singing these words to many beautiful women as we danced the nights away. Thank you Keith, my friend... for the memories. My friends have died one by one, alcohol takes some, drugs take some, bad health and carelessness. None of us are immortal. I guess I'm no stranger to the rain.
Kenneth Marks thanks for agreeing with me on Keith Whitley thanks William mccloud the number one the king of COUNTRY music singer number one and always will be number one in COUNTRY music singer

I have 1 Question? If you were with Keith Whitley why in the name of common sense would you close your eyes? 😱
He sang this song for every man who lost their first love....
This is REAL COUNTRY!!! bring it back, Nashville!!!
I agree!

This was on in the background when Keith blackened one of Lorrie's eyes with a whiskey bottle.
Don't you ever doubt that fact my music loving friend
I'm SOOO happy Keith is FINALLY being inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame...LONG overdue.
Facts, man. I just discovered him for myself from bouncing between Brooks & Dunn, and Conway Twitty.
Cbg
I'll second that.

Yes he should be
Sometimes I need this music. We all have pain inside us and when we’re sitting all alone, well I believe a good cry helps with the stress,especially when you have no one to be with.
Exactly! I always believe a good cry helps to cleanse the heart and soul.
😘
We are never alone ❤❤
Well said my friend.

My favorite Keith Whitley song
Mine 3
His life of addiction and death made for one hell of a sad documentary. He was absolutely brimming with talent and by all accounts was a super good guy. Those addiction demons are sure hard to shake.
Sadly many have internal demons that are just hard to shake or ever fully overcome, addiction being one of the worst. You try to live life as best as you can but sometimes theres no warning before those demons take hold and might take you all the way to your death bed.
They sure are ,!!!
I’m a month in to trying to shake mine, I’ve relapsed a couple of times
Stay strong, go to therapy, talk to family or friends that love you. You deserve the best life can offer you. There are so many wonderful times ahead of you.
Yes.... I haven't watched the documentary but I lost both of my parents in the last like 5 months over addiction... It's terrible... I'm only 19 so it's hard. I really hate how drugs change the people you love.
I am just watched CMA awards pitiful. This is real country ❤
Me too. i did'nt know most of them and its rock with a country twang. not real country like this. it was a shit show.
A voice silenced by alchol addiction. R i p Mr. Whitley you are missed not only by those that loved you but by millions of others.
He died from alcohol but it wasn't the alcohol that poisoned him.

When she has relationship problems she’s on Facebook a lot. She’s been on Facebook a lot lately. She’s admitted she has a bad problem with cheating. That tells me this is the beginning of the end for them.

Just brings me to tears Everytime I hear this song.

This song was sang deep from the heart ❤️ Ive been in recovery and will celebrate 8 years on January 21st.
I can relate to his struggles with addiction. Through my time of self discovery and going through the physical/ Emotional sobriety,
I have to say that there's very few artists that helped me through the hard times .. but Keith's story and his music inspired me to continue to "keep fighting the good fight."
All is not lost, Your Victory is just beginning."
I still take it one day at a time ❤ & I'm so grateful to have a 2nd chance at life again 💯❤️

My all time favorite country song! I go to a lot of horse trail rides, and this is one of the most requested dance songs - especially by me. One of my horse buddies knew whenever this song was played, that he had to dance with me. Such a great voice, gone way to soon!
I found this song and it made me cry. Alcohol killed this poor guy. Being a good looking guy with all he had going for him and he drank himself to death. I haven't anything to offer anyone. I lost the only girl I ever loved and now I am supposed to start over at 48. Just doesnt feel like I'll be ok :'(

Ted Unseth one of the G.O.A.T’s of country, he grew up about an hour away from me and sadly it seems he is extremely under appreciated today, he brought back that classic sound when country was going in a more pop direction

We lost Keith Whitley to soon to alcohol addiction at the age of 33 years old when he passed away his music lives on forever
I agree the greatest
@@bama8868 agreed
Simply The BEST VOCALIST, Ever
He couldn’t have known it, but Keith Whitley was on his way to becoming a legend during the late 1980s resurgence of a more-traditional country music sound (though Whitley seldom wore a cowboy hat like many). Having worked with Ricky Skaggs in Ralph Stanley’s band as a teenager, Whitley had the voice and the chops for Nashville. The number-one title track from his 1988 album Don’t Close Your Eyes made him a bona fide country star, but he died of alcohol poisoning at 33 about a year after its release.
A song about a man’s request for his partner to forget a previous paramour and make love with her eyes open, “Don’t Close Your Eyes” has since become a slow-dance classic in every honky-tonk and roadside bar. It was written by Bob McDill, the Nashville songwriting giant whose songs were recorded by Waylon Jennings, Pam Tillis and many others.
Don’t close your eyes let it be me
Don’t pretend it’s him in some fantasy
Darling just once let yesterday go
And you’ll find more love than you’ve ever known
Just hold me tight when you love me tonight
And don’t close your eyes
The song would later be cut by Alan Jackson and, taking it from the female point of view, Kellie Pickler. Where most country singles from those days are now a fond memory, the “Don’t Close Your Eyes” single today is, almost inexplicably, one of that era’s strongest sellers digitally.
Enough said! Nhi mop
❤💖♥️⚓⚓⚓
@Steve Cabral - Your observations are incredibly insightful. I remember seeing Keith's Harley in the front entrance area of the CM Hall of Fame in Nashville a few years ago. Sad to think of all he had to live for and yet he couldn't stand the pain of life as it was for him. :-( What a tragic loss for lovers of country music. I think the Harley in this video is the one I saw at CMHOF a few years ago... ruclips.net/video/xNU7iIdw7Ss/видео.html

This is country. Not the bs on the radio now. Don’t even get me started.

Jacob McCoy honestly tho
Today artist are better then these trash y'all call classic
Keith could have been among the greatest country artists ever. It just wasn't meant to be. Thank God for the sample we got. A great talent. RIP Mr. Whitley...
Just imagine how good country music would STILL sound if this man never died.
You got that right ⁉️ imagine how life could have been ....if only he was strong enough to withhold. This would been better place.
I had the honor and privilege of standing on that very stage exactly where the Stars stand I am so blessed
Probably one of country music greatest. Extremely underrated. He put his entire heart and soul in his music. You can actually feel the music deep inside your body. He left us way too soon. His music could make a cowboy shed tears.
Fortunately his music will be around forever.
I always enjoy what you share here on RUclips but we're not friends yet, I will love to be friends with you.. so how are you feeling today..?
You know I was sitting in my car while my wife was shopping and I sang this..a lady stopped next to me and thanked me for singing it, she was crying and did it was so beautiful, her mom listened to KW quite often, made me feel kinda cool that someone else was appreciating his song.❤❤

To me he has more emotion in his voice than almost any other male country singer, and thats saying alot. He makes it seem so easy, yet he still hits me hard in the feels when he sings. An all time great country voice.
Yes! Exactly. This song plays in my head every so often and I just have to hear his voice
He’s not only singing it, he lived it. It’s gut wrenching to me to hear so much pain in his voice, and know all the heartbreak behind it
Such beautiful music.makes me CRY.xxxxxx
I feel so bad for what music we could have had from him if he hadn't have passed away at such a young age. Always remember to drink responsibly.

Hello friend 🌹 🌹 🌹
Sad to say the music they play today will be called "Classic Country" 20 years from now. I'm so glad I grew up to 80's and 90's Country... I'd give anything to go back to those days.
Amen brother.
I was born in88 and still listen to the real country music not this new crap
I was born early 2000's but I grew up with real country. If people forget this beautiful music- it's their own loss 🤷♀️ sad to say that preservation isnt exactly easy with my generation... stubborn (and pretty hateful)
I'd say I'm one of the only kids I know that has a listens to this: much less maintains a traditional mindset
Joe Dirt one the best songs describing my era is Mark Wills, 19 something. It’s probably not one I think about when I think about my favorite songs/artists (I can never decide between Conway Twitty and The King of Country, George Strait, and of corse, Reba!) but whenever I see or hear someone talking about how they miss the music they grew up, that one always comes to mind.
@Chris Russell I can understand that
My great aunt passed away yesterday and Keith Whitley was her favorite. Moments before she passes my mother suggested to my cousin that maybe hearing some of her favorite music in her final moments would be good for her and make passing on easier. My cousin asked if she really believed she could still hear them and my mom said she did so my cousin played this song on her phone and laid the phone next to her head on the pillow. She passed on before it finished playing.
Lyrics
I know you loved him, a long time ago
Even now in my arms, you still want him I know
But darling this time, your memories die
When you hold me tonight, don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes, let it be me
Don't pretend it's him, in some fantasy
Darling just once, let yesterday go
And you'll find more love than you'll ever know
Just hold me tight, when you love me tonight
And don't close your eyes
Maybe I've, been a fool, holding on all this time
Lying here in your arms, knowing he's in your mind
But I keep hoping someday, that you'll see the light
Let it be tonight and don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes, let it be me
Don't pretend it's him, in some fantasy
Darling just once, let yesterday go
And you'll find more love than you'll ever know
Just hold me tight, when you love me tonight
And don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes, let it be me
Don't pretend it's him, in some fantasy
Darling just once, let yesterday go
And you'll find more love than you'll ever know
Just hold me tight, when you love me tonight
And don't close your eyes
Just hold me tight, when you love me tonight,
And don't close your eyes

Wait til your 37 and you admit to yourself that the Love of Your Life "settled" for you but their heart belongs to someone else who is long gone but their memory lives on In Your Relationship 😢
I'm so sorry, I can't even imagine how you feel. That's got to be a hard pill to swallow. I made a very big mistake & remarried after me & the love of my life went our separate ways. It didn't work out, I compared everything he did to my true love. I just couldn't stand even being with him, much less him touching me. And when our divorce was made finale I remarried the love of my life. What he thought he wanted he realized he didn't . True love just doesn't die, a divorce decree doesn't change a heart just one's life. I heard it took a long time for the other man to get over me. And I have always felt so bad about it. I pray that he did find his one true love & had a very happy life. I am sorry I hurt him. This song makes me go back to that time & how he must have felt because he knew my heart & soul still belonged to my only true love. I've been in love with this man for 49 years. He was killed in a car wreck in 2003 & he was only 44. We both remarried but we both were still very much in love with each other. He told me just a few years before he passed that I was his soulmate & that I was the only one that really knew him at all. I'm 67 now & never remarried. He is my soulmate, the love of my life & I know he's waiting on me in Heaven to cross over to be with him again only this time for all eternity. God bless you at least she stayed with you & you got to love her. She has to have some love for you & care about you or she would've never stayed . Please believe that. 😔
Wish that he didn't cut his life so short he had everything going for him lost him to soon to alcohol poisoning at the age of 33 years old when he passed away his music will always lives on forever
