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.

I Won't Forget You Lyrics
Jim Reeves
I WON'T FORGET YOU.
I KNOW THAT I WON'T FORGET YOU
FOR I'VE LOVED YOU TOO MUCH FOR TOO LONG
THOUGH YOU DON'T WANT ME NOW
I'LL STILL LOVE YOU
'TIL THE BREATH IN MY BODY HAS GONE
THAT'S HOW IT IS WITH ME
AND YOU'LL ALWAYS BE
THE ONLY LOVE I EVER KNEW
I'LL FORGET MANY THINGS IN MY LIFE TIME
BUT MY DARLING I WON'T FORGET YOU
THAT'S HOW IT IS WITH ME
AND YOU'LL ALWAYS BE
THE ONLY LOVE I EVER KNEW
I'LL FORGET MANY THINGS IN MY LIFE TIME
BUT MY DARLING I WON'T FORGET YOU.
