Question
Ihave heard the song several times on "Willie's" place but never hear who sings it or the name of the song.  Please help!!
"How could I love her so much and then lose her so quickly to someone like you.  How did you know how to hold her and please her?  How did you know what to do?"
You probably know this is driving me crazy (well, okay I was already there) and I have looked on the internet for hours.  
Thanks - duane

Hello Duane,

That's a 1983 song by Johnny Rodriguez called "How Could I Love Her So Much".........


I went over to him, said you may not know me
But I sure do know who you are
Dont worry my anger was spent long ago
And only the memory remains
But Lord, how I suffered, sometimes I still wonder
And maybe now you can explain

Tell me how could I love her so much
And then lose her so quickly to someone like you
How did you know how to hold her and please her
How did you know what to do

After all of the time I spent learning to love her
And be what she needed me to
Tell me how could I love her so much
And then lose her so quickly to someone like you

He said, Friend let me buy you a drink
And I'll tell you a story that's sad, but it's true
How I loved her and held her till some licker stole her
From me, like I stole her from you

I guess no one can own her, her heart's like a soldier
Of fortune, her love's like the wind
Till all I can think of is finding a new love
And asking this question again

How could I love her so much
And then lose her so quickly to someone like you
How did you know how to hold her and please her
How did you know what to do

After all of the time I spent learning to love her
And be what she needed me to
Tell me how could I love her so much
And then lose her so quickly to someone like you

How could I love her so much
And then lose her so quickly to someone like you


Glad to be of help. Cheers........Mel.
