THAT'S WHEN I'LL STOP LOVING YOU
(Vernon Harrell)

Linda Jones (with The O'Jays) - 1969


(That's when I'll stop loving you)
(That's when I'll stop loving you)

When the birds no longer use wings to fly, no-no
And the raindrops stop falling, yeah, from the sky, oh yeah
When mathmeticians find, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, that one plus
one isn't two
Now doncha know that that's when, ah doncha know that's
when I'll stop lovin' you, Baby
Oh-oh-oh-ooh, stop lovin' ya, Darlin', yeah

When there is no remedy for, oh-ooh, for aches an', for
aches and pains, yeah-yeah-yeah
And when the flowers, the flowers they no longer, no longer
grow from the rain, oh-ooh, yeah-yeah
And when old Broadway, Broadway changes to Fifth Avenue
Now doncha know that that's when, oh-oooh, that's when I'll
stop lovin' you, aw Baby, no-ooh
The only way I'll stop lovin' ya, Darlin'

You've shown me the joy love can truly bring, yes ya did now
And you made my, my sad life like the first day, like the
first day, woooooooooooh, the first day of Spring
Oo-oo-oo-ooh, now when the rays of the Sun are gone
No longer, it no longer gives us heat
And this ol' heart of mine, don't y'all know, that one day
it's gonna refuse to beat
And one last thing I've got to say
And if I wake, if I awake and find there's no more, no more
mornin' dew
Now doncha know that that's when, ooooooooooooo........FADE
