Kris Kristofferson & Rita Coolidge - Please don’t tell me how the story ends (1978)

They’d sing so real nice harmony together, it sounds so amazingly beautiful ... This song is just perfect - the tune, the lyrics, the harmonies ... awesome ... How can one dislike it?? ... this is from Johnny Cash’s Christmas Show 1978 You can see it in their eyes - lots of desperation and scepsis, though also still love and hope - it had already been over at the end of 1978... That’s what Rita said about their divorce I also love Kris’ demo version from (ca) 1970 which is in my uploads too Kris today sings this song in the finale of his solo concerts - either this one is the last song, or it is Why me... Please don’t tell me how the story ends (1970) This could be our last good night together We may never pass this way again. Just let me enjoy it ’til it’s over, or forever Please don’t tell me how the story ends. See the way our shadows come together Softer than your fingers on my skin Someday these may be all we remember of each other Please don’t tell me how the story ends. Never’s just the echo of forever Lonesome as a love that might have been. Let me go on lovin’ and believin’ ’til it’s over Please don’t tell me how the story ends.
