WELL this is it ~ that day is here
The day I knew would come ~
When you would leave me dear !
Well here I sit ~ while teardrops fall
And wonder why I care ~
When you don't care at all !
But I'm a fool that way ~
From way back when
A fool who'd have you back ~
If you'd come back again !
But this is it you're gone you're free
You'll find another Love but this is it for me !
Well hear I sit and try to guess
How such an empty room's ~
So full of LONELINESS !
Well even the CLOCK HAS STOPPED
Somehow I guess it knew
That time's run out for me
It's over ~ it's all through !
YES ~ this is it
You're GONE ~ You're FREE
You'll find another LOVE
But THIS IS IT FOR ME !
Thanks for listening ~ comments welcome ~ Love BRIAN XOX
I was stopped in my tracks when I first heard this Song
It was co-written by JIM and it is so so prophetical !
He was walking unrecognised in Wallmart with his Brother
in Law ~ John White six months before he died. He said
"John for a Country Boy ~ I've come a long way and I
don't know what to do next ~ John said ~ Don't worry
Jim ~ God will take care of the future !" Jim had a lovely
speaking voice and the lines ! "Well even the clock has stopped
Somehow I guess it knew ~ That times run out for me ~ It's
over it's over it's all through !" Very very nostalgic ! I always
finish my Jim Reeves Tributes with this song and an account of
his early demise at the age of 40 ~ 55 years ago ! He could
still be singing Tony Bennett (92) still is. Most of my audiences
are 70+ and there isn't a dry eye in the house at the end !

Very emotive write, I do hope that it reflective as you and not for real.
Thanks ANDY ~ I have now added a note which you might like to read ! There is "A Time to be BORN and a Time to Die" Like you ANDY i would love to live long enough to be a Granddad (2050 at least) However if the LORD calls me Home today ~ I have assurance of Salvation and that JESUS has prepaed a place for Me in GLORY ~ AMEN Pleased you liked it ~ thanks for your comment ~ BROTHER BRIAN !
A fine write Brian. Now look, you're gonna live to 117 or something, so you said! heehee.
Thanks STEVE ~ pleased you enjoyed it ! Well in 2100 (God only knows what State the planet will be in !) I will indeed only be 117 so I hope I don't regret living so long ! Yours BRIAN
