The Louvin Brothers - When I Stop Dreaming lyrics

The worst that I've ever been hurt in my life The first time I ever wanted to die was the night When you told me you loved someone new And asked me if I could forget When I stop dreaming That's when I'll stop loving you I'd be like a flower unwanted in spring Alone and neglected, transplanted in vain To a garden of sadness where it's pedals will fall In the shadow of undying pain You can teach the flowers to bloom in the snow You may take a pebble and teach it to grow You can teach all the raindrops to return to the clouds But you can't teach my heart to forget
