In reality, things don&#8217;t always go the way we want them to go. When I was young I had a break up with a girlfriend, and used to sing a lot of these type of songs. One time when my Dad heard me singing he said: &#8220;Where does it hurt the most?&#8221; I guess he never experienced a broken heart.<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=VWxO8Zl0prA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">1. You&#8217;ll never be mine again<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>What this songs means to me is too personal to share, but it was so very real to me at the time.<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=EpTmjH5cl14\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">2. I won&#8217;t come in while he&#8217;s there<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>I think this was a hit after he passed away. Jim portrays a man who is mild, and easily hurt, in many of his songs. His personality kind of suited me.<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=INnEiOnsm0Y&amp;feature=related\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">3. Not until the next time<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>I have had some girlfriends who were dating other guys at the same time, so I can relate to this type of song.<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=VrvWudDKdDk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><br \/>4. Stand at your window<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>When I was a teenager, I used to go for walks on the streets at night and sing this song to myself. I was so lonely.<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=GtB_sGjeVi8&amp;feature=related\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">5. When you are gone<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>&#8220;When you are gone, there&#8217;s no fun with the crowd.&#8221; Those words are so true.<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=886a2kRDgho&amp;feature=related\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><br \/>6. After loving you<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>Each person is different, and leave different memories.<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=RYk_EJVr3qo&amp;feature=related\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><br \/>7. Just out of reach<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>I sometimes wonder what Jim Reeves&#8217; wife thought of him singing all these heavy love songs, and I wonder how many girlfriends he had before he got married.<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=vA3_IXNxv7E\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">8. A letter to my heart- Jim Reeves sings sad love songs<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>When I sang in public, I used to sing lots of happy songs, and was smiling all the time, but on my own I used to sing songs like this to myself, and get really sad and blue. Other people didn&#8217;t really know what I was like on the inside.<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=GTmMDhvhXZc&amp;feature=related\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">9. Am I that easy to forget<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>Each person is special in their own particular way. I cannot forget any of the people in my life.<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=yWUsn9Cvzis&amp;feature=related\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><br \/>10. There&#8217;s a heartache following me<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>&#8220;I look around, and there&#8217;s a heartache following me.&#8221; I heard a song on the radio recently that said: &#8220;Looking for love in all the wrong places.&#8221; I guess that was part of my problem.<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Bsp7dP2tW8k&amp;feature=related\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><br \/>11. I missed me<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>I had a live recording of Jim Reeves singing a part of this song. Doing this on my website got me hearing the rest of the song.<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=_Rxeik-WRpI&amp;feature=related\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">12. Is it really over<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>I am so glad I am married now, and not going through all those heartaches I went through before.<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ObnSbvWFjms&amp;feature=related\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">13. Missing you<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>Another one of Jim Reeves&#8217; sad love songs. One is a lonely number.<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=8RxFmgICGcw&amp;feature=related\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">14. You kept me awake last night<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>For the past few years, I haven&#8217;t been able to sleep at night.<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=pJWo6YVpV-o&amp;feature=related\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">15. When I lost you<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>Read the story below the song, about the guy&#8217;s wife dying.<\/p>\r\n<p>16. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=tP8x8DLI6AE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Letter edged in black<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>I used to sing this one when I was a teenager, and I could always visualize the postman coming up the driveway. The heartache regarding my parents is so real as well.<\/p>\r\n<p>17. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=g_DtBCvPwHg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">How can I write on paper (what I feel in my heart)<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>Sometimes it is so hard to express what you really feel, that is why it is easier to sing a song about it.<\/p>\r\n<p>18. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=PrKmrqICKQg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">There&#8217;s a new moon over my shoulder<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>When I heard this song when I was young, I wished I could make beautiful music like this.<\/p>\r\n<p>19. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=oWcCxmi1RAg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Adios Amigo<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>This is the very first song I heard by Gentleman JR. I have chosen this one with the pictures of the fields, because this is more like the way I feel it. I remember being in another country, and driving out of town, looking over the fields and singing this lovely song,and it gave me that lonesome feeling.<\/p>\r\n<p>20. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=hbcxFeHCVOg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">There&#8217;s that smile again<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>Here&#8217;s a number I had never heard before, but it looked interesting. Very interesting. What a lovely one.<\/p>\r\n<p>I also have a country gospel site: <a href=\"https:\/\/countrygospelandbible.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Country Gospel and Bible\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jim Reeves sings some of my favorite love songs that have a sad edge to them.
