As recorded by DOTTIE WEST:

I can tell that somewhere there's someone you love more than me
Someone you love more than me
And it hurts to admit it, but you have the right to be free
I know that's the way it should be

My friends would console me by saying go find someone new
Go out and find someone new
But the longer I try, the harder I cry over you
I go home and cry over you

'Cause I'm too far gone, too far gone
I guess that I've loved you too much for too long
And I'm too far gone

If ever your new love should hurt you or make you feel blue
Hurt you or make you feel blue
Well, just remember your old love will still be around loving you
I'll be around loving you

'Cause I'm too far gone, too far gone
I guess that I've loved you too much for too long
And I'm too far gone
