Can't Stop Loving You (Album Version)

Can't Stop Loving You - Joe Firstman

Written by：Billy Nicholls

She was fading

Couldn't save her with my cursing

At the laughing

Lord in his golden chair

She said

Leave me alone boy

Can't you see I'm dying here

And the chapel was as empty as the bus station on Sunday

And she was sad in her rented gown

And the preacher had his stock quotes

Hiding behind our wedding notes

And his shares were going down

But I can't stop loving you baby

But I can't stop hating myself

But I can't stop loving you baby

But I can't stop hating myself

So I stole her sunflowers hours before the service

She was nervous and I was broke

I couldn't be seen as I slipped between

Some warm Jim Beam and my petticoat

Didn't hear from her family

They were somewhere between San Fran and San Antone

Oh sweet

Lord had his mercy

When he cursed me with a woman

And I was damn sure happy being alone

I can't stop loving you baby

But I can't stop hating myself

I can't stop loving you baby

But I can't stop hating myself

I didn't have the courage to tell her I was nervous

And I was worthless to the bone

She was laughing like a siren through the service

'Cause she knew that I hated being alone

Baby was a bruiser

But she was the only girl she was the only girl I had ever known

I can't stop loving you baby

But I can't stop hating myself

I can't stop loving you baby

But I can't stop hating myself

I can't stop loving you baby

But I can't stop hating myself

I can't stop loving you baby

But I can't stop hating my hating my hating myself

I can't stop hating myself
