Reeves, Jim - I Won't Forget You Lyrics






I won't forget you.

I know that I won't forget you
For I've loved you too much for too long
Though you don't want me now
I'll still love you
'til the breath in my body has gone

That's how it is with me
And you'll always be
The only love I ever knew
I'll forget many things in my life time
But my darling I won't forget you

That's how it is with me
And you'll always be
The only love I ever knew
I'll forget many things in my life time
But my darling I won't forget you.

    I remember when he died in the plane crash. I was devastated. It wasn’t really his fault, it was the fault of those on the ground. Because he was famous they decided he was able to take control. Being famous also has its downsides

  24. F.... P....

    Who else is listening to Mr Velvet in 2019?
    I thank God I can sing like this man I won't lie I cry when I listen to jim reeves
    He reminds me so much of my late father. I'm a Jamaican country singer and proud of it to RIP daddy and thanks for growing me on Mr Reeves songs.

    I do want you. You are never available to me...you are always off touring. I always have loved you. Since I first shook your right hand at the show.

  80. G.... f....

    So, way back this music came out on records, and on tapes later. As time went by records and tapes disappeared and one's natural reaction would be that this treausure box of music would be lost for future generations. Yet here I am sitting on my couch, with what would have been a very futuristic piece of equipment one could only dream about in the 1960's, and I have the world's music at my fingertips, and not just the sound but video as well. I wonder how many people who grew up without Smartphones realise how the world has changed, and I also wonder what it must be like for today's children who never knew what it was like not to have these gadgets. And I also wonder, do children still climb trees and play outside in the rain like we did

  81. I.... L....

    Jim Reeves songs brings back sweet and sad memories for me. After more than 60 years I still love listening to his songs

  82. R.... G....

    What a wonderful and graceful voice, one of the best singers of all time. Love you Jim.

  83. J.... A....

  84. F.... W....

    Me too my Darling never nooit. . 💜

  85. C.... N....

    04-12-2019: In 1957, on TV, I heard Jim sing for the first time. Jim was singing "Four Walls", the same song Jim later admitted was his favorite song that he recorded. Until that time I had always equated "A beautiful voice" with female singers. I quickly changed my mind. I was totally mesmerized by Jim vocals on that day in 1957, and remain totally mesmerized even today. Incredibly beautiful voice and style.

    Y.... ....

    wow... what a love story!
