Jim Reeves - Before I Died Lyrics
No need to say you're sorry
No need to feel ashamed
If I'm not the one you love
Don't feel you're to blame.
And this pain is hard to hide
But at least I lived a little while
Before I died.
I lived long enough to know
The sweet thrill of your lips
I knew happiness
Right down to my finger tips.
You'll always be a part of me
At least I lived a little while
Before I died.
Don't ask me to forget you
'Cause you mean too much to me
I couldn't even if I tried
Too many memories.
My yesterday's were happy days
And each mem'ry's locked inside
At least I lived a little while
Before I died.
I lived long enough to know
The sweet thrill of your lips
I knew happiness
Right down to my finger tips.
You'll always be a part of me
And though you can't be mine
At least I lived a little while
Before I died...

Deep deep words
Before I died....one of Jim greatest songs, I love the lyrics of that song. I was just 13yrs. old when I heard Jim died , I cried bitterly he was my Idol.I still love and listen to his song all the time even though Charley Pride is my Idol now. R.I.P.Jim.
True. I was 8 yrs old when I learned of his passing and remember exactly where I was, who was with me and who told me. I too cried every night, once in bed, for days. it was truly a upsetting moment in my life I shall never forget.
I agree dear Nalini
Which year was that?
I just love these old gospel songs.
I cant stop listening to this golden voice man, gone but not forgotten
Awesome song sing bye Jim thanks for posting God Bless Jim xxx Brad Chad
Who is like unto you "O"Jim reeves? For I have known the sweet thrill of your voice...
Nice play on words from Old Testament vernacular, particularly the book of Isaiah.
jim song before I die another title he make
Title is "BEFORE I DIED"
Correct; past tense. Prophetic in a couple of ways. Eerie in the date it was recorded.
Does he now 😡💥👍👍👍👍
I love love God bless
The Best version
