'My brother told me, in terms of losing you, he was a doctor, he had a patient, who was 24 or 25, who was a doctor actually and he died, got pancreatic cancer or something that kills you very quickly. He talked to the parents, they said, "Doctor, you know we were in the concentration camps and we lost, both of us lost our entire families in Europe, and we had time to get over that, but we're not going to get over this." I remember that story, as I remember things people tell me, I used it in that way. You reach a point where you get older and you don't have time to forget some stuff.' - Randy Newman (Source: http://www.nonesuch.com/media/videos/randy-newman-the-unforgettable-inspirati...)
Lyric:
Was a fool with my money
And I lost every dime
And the sun stopped shining
And it rained all the time
It did set me back some
But I made it through
But I'll never get over losing you
Do you know how much you mean to me?
Should've told you 'cause it's true
I'd get over losing anything
But I'll never get over losing you
When you're young
And there's time
To forget the past
You don't think that you will
But you do
But I know that I don't have time enough
And I'll never get over losing you
I've been cold
I've been hungry
But not for awhile
I guess most of my dreams have come true
With it all here around me
No peace do I find
'Cause I'll never get over losing you
No, I'll never get over losing you
exquisitely beautiful and heartfelt. thanx Duncan for this lovely cover song

Love that you've posted Randy Newman's inspiration behind the song. There is no such thing a closure when losing someone close, just acceptance and distraction of new life experiences and joy from loved ones still alive..... Smooth cover :)
