This Is It Lyrics


Well, this is it, that day is here
The day I knew would come when you would leave me dear
Well, here I sit, while teardrops fall
And wonder why I care when you don't care at allBut I'm a fool that way, from a way back when
A fool who'd take you back if you'd come back again
But this is it, you're gone, you're free
You'll find another love, but this is it for meWell, this is it, that day is here
It's no surprise and yet, I can't hold back the tears
Well, here I sit and try to guess
How such an empty room, so full of lonelinessWell, even the clock has stopped
Somehow I guess it knew, that time's run out
For me, it's over, it's all through
Yes, this is it, you're gone, you're free
You'll find another love, but this is it for me

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Jim Reeves (1923 - 1964), known affectionately as 'Gentleman Jim', was a country singer known for his velvety voice. Through his unique style, which fused the laidback style of crooners such as Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby with country material, he brought country music to a whole new audience. He was also one of the first to bring country music to places outside of America, gaining widespread popularity in Britain, Europe, South Africa and India.

His prolific career was cut tragically short in 1964 by a plane crash. However, even after his death, his popularity did not wane and he continued to have hits some years after his death, with previously unreleased songs and remastered earlier material.

Added 01: One interesting fact was that he recorded an album in Afrikaans for Afrikaners in South Africa. How do I know? I bought the LP many years ago.
