Couldn't Love Have Picked A Better Place To Die Lyrics - George Jones

Of all the people in this 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 all the world, why yours and mine 

There's so many places love could die, we must leave the earth for a time 

Oh, 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 

Oh, 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? 

--- Instrumental --- 

Oh, but it's pityful how all these tears won't bring it back to life
