1976 - JIMMY (I STILL LOVE YOU)

I've spent the past few years just staring into space
surrounded my memories that time could not erase.
The plans that we once made
have just begun to fade.
I'm beginning to see the facts I'll have to face.

It's hard to understand and still I wonder why
when love was at its best, my lover had to die.
I've needed, oh so much,
your warm and gentle touch
and without you, it's impossible to survive.

Jimmy, your were my life
and even thought I'll never get to be your wife,
I still love you. Yes, I still love you.

I've been told that through the years
sorrow and pain are washed away.
If that's true, then why do tears
come easier to my eyes every day?

No matter what I've done, no matter what I've tried,
there's still no coping with the pain down deep inside.
Until the end of time,
my son will never shine.
In the shadow of your memory I will hide.

Jimmy, your were my life
and even thought I'll never get to be your wife,
I still love you. Yes, I still love you.

It's been so hard to forget
all the love I used to know,
all the happy thoughts, and yet
all along I always knew you'd have to go.

It's been a long time now, my loving days are through.
I guess I've met them all, but none will ever do.
With no one else I'll share,
for no one could compare.
I'll never love anyone again as I loved you.

Jimmy, your were my life
and even thought I'll never get to be your wife,
I still love you. Yes, I still love you.
