Porter Wagoner and Dolly Parton – Please Don’t Stop Loving Me Lyrics

Please, please don’t stop loving me
For I couldn’t live with you gone
Please, please don’t stop loving me
For I couldn’t make it alone

You bring me the sunshine when none is in sight
And when I’m in darkness, you bring me the light
You opened my eyes when I couldn’t see
So please, oh, please don’t stop loving me

You’re my inspiration, my purpose in life
When things go all wrong, you make them all right
I would be useless if you ever leave
So please, oh please don’t stop loving me

Please, please don’t stop loving me
For I couldn’t live with you gone
Please, please don’t stop loving me
For I couldn’t make it alone
Please, please don’t stop loving me
