 THE TRAVELING LIFELONG BUSH POET

He Stopped Loving Her Today



In memory of my Dad

He stopped loving her today
This was my fathers life~
The story was the same right through
My mother was his wife~
Now all these years later on
From a small boy I watched him die inside~
He kept his vows every single one
And broken hearted died with pride~
No one but myself chooses to remember
How he suffered but always carried on~
And though an older man now myself I'm doing fine
Right up until again I hear this song~
I told him I'd find what he never did alive
Simply true love and peace of mind~
I said to him last I'll find it for you dad
I can still see his sincere smile so kind~
I've lived my life searching for unconditional true love
One who adores myself as I did her as well~
In every single old fashioned way
And soon we'll ring that wedding bell~
I've broken the spell,my hearts now safe and free
I cannot die anymore as my dad left this earth~
I am so inlove with one who's inlove with me
Happy now until I take my last breath on earth earth~
But every time I hear that song
I feel again his suffering and pain~
My dad a saint,A man right to the end
He gave only sunshine to all and received rain~
I've found it dad peace of mind and true love
No money on earth could buy it true~
I live my life with all your values intact
You being my dad it lives on all thanks to you~
I learned never to drop ones search in life
For what really matters to you more all along ~
But now all I've found in one little old fashioned English girl
Has me being able to listen now to your song~
LOVE YA MATE ......
