“When Did You Stop Loving Me”
(from “Pure Country” soundtrack)When did you stop lovin’ me?
How long have I been a memory?
I’ve got to know for my own sanity.
Tell me when did you stop lovin’ me?Was it that night that you stayed out until dawn?
You know that night has haunted me for so long.
Or was your love already cold?
Tell me please I got to know.
Darlin’ when did you stop lovin’ me?There was a time when you worshipped where I stood.
Heaven knows I’d bring it back if I could.
Now I can tell when we make love,
It ain’t me you’re thinkin’ of.
Tell me when did you stop lovin’ me?
Darlin’, when did you stop lovin’ me?
