Classic Country K. A. Patterson: Music

I Still Love You So

(K A Patterson-Writer)
Sounds Like: Gary Allan / Hal Ketchum / Leroy Parnell / Marty Stuart
DESCRIPTION
First commercially viable song by Writer K A Patterson, written at age 14. Touching story song about teenage love is "crying in your beer ballad" meets "if you love her you must let her go--and be okay with it". Sung slowly, it could be depressing. In this up-tempo arrangement, the pain of lost love becomes tempered with the reality that "there will be a tomorrow".

LYRICS

I understand what you’re saying. But why you’re saying it I don’t know. All I know is my world is ending, for I see the time has come to let you go.

But I’ll remember you until my dying day. I won’t forget our love—there’s no way. Come let me hold you close once more before you go, for, my darling, I still love you so.

Now I can’t swear to you I’ll always love you. And one day, it’s true, the hurt may go. All I know is now, and now I know I want you, for, my darling, I still love you so.

And I’ll remember you until my dying day. I won’t forget our love—there’s no way. Come let me hold you close once more before you go, for, my darling, I still love you so.

Yes, my darling, I still love you so.
