George Jones - Couldn't Love Have Picked A Better Place To Die Lyrics






Of all the people in this world, why you and I
With lovers here and everywhere we don't care enough to try
Why couldn't all the hurt we're feeling now have passed us by
Couldn't love have picked a better place to die?

And of all the hearts in all the world, why yours and mine
There's so many places love could die, we must leave the earth for a time
Oh, but it's in our hearts and it's in our bed and it's even in your eyes
Couldn't love have picked a better place to die?

Somewhere out there there's lovers who want to be free
Why couldn't love have died with them instead of here with you and me
Oh, but it's pityful how all these tears won't bring it back to life
Couldn't love have picked a better place to die?

Oh, but it's pityful how all these tears won't bring it back to life

Oh, couldn't love have picked a better place to die?

    George recorded so many songs that tear your heart out. I almost forgot how much I loved this song.

    D.... N....

    D. Neil McKay must not have tore your heart out enough. it's still there

  16. S.... F....

    It amazes me every time I run across one of George's songs that I have never heard before, such as this and also Day After Tomorrow. Thank goodness for "You Tube". I don't care for any of the current crop of Country Music performers . I love to listen to George and also keith Whitley. I don't believe we will ever see any to compare with them again.

    We miss you Possum!  You carried many of us through the 70's & 80's.  God Bless You, my friend.

  23. B.... W....

    The 'raw' emotion in George's voice tears the heart & soul from my body......I cry when I play this song (& I play it dozens of times each and every day).  What a voice, what a song.......Keep singing George.......with the angels as your backup.....Wow!  If George Jones isn't in Heaven, then I don't want to go there either............

    B.... W....

    How true.. his voice tears the heart right out of you. No other artist that I know is able to use his voice and make you feel that raw pain he is expressing. Simply amazing !

  24. B.... M....

    George sustains tones he shouldn't be able to; basically he can sing in a way he shouldn't be able to.
