Couldn't Love Have Picked a Better Place to Die - Gene Watson

Of all the people in the world, why you and I With lovers here and everywhere we don’t care enough to try

Why couldn’t all the hurt we’re feeling now have passed us by Couldn’t love have picked a better place to die

And of all the hearts in the world, why yours and mine

How could we go from so much love to so much hurt tonight

But it’s in our hearts and it’s in our bed and it’s even in your eyes

Couldn’t love have picked a better place to die

Somewhere out there there’s lovers who want to be free

Why couldn’t love have died with them instead of here with you and me But it’s pityful how all these tears won’t bring it back to life

Couldn’t love have picked a better place to die

Oh, couldn’t love have picked a better place to die
