Charley Louvin - When I Stop Dreaming текст песни

( w. Elvis Costello )



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
