James Travis "Jim" Reeves (August 20, 1923 – July 31, 1964) was an American country and popular music singer-songwriter. With records charting from the 1950s to the 1980s, he became well known as a practitioner of the Nashville sound (a mixture of older country-style music with elements of popular music). Known as "Gentleman Jim", his songs continued to chart for years after his death. Reeves died at age 40 in the crash of a private airplane. He is a member of both the Country Music and Texas Country Music Halls of Fame. more »

The Gods were angry with me for loving you
The Gods were angry with me because they knew
I stood at heaven's portal and that was too high for any model such as I
So they took down the sun the skies were gray 
Then the howling winds took you away
And there was nothing I could do
Because I knew the Gods were angry with me for loving you
Once upon a time when our love was new
And I was happy with the love that I've found
Then the Gods and the sun and the moon and the stars looked down 
And saw me there with you
And they sent my dream world crash into the ground
(It was because the Gods were angry with me)
The Gods were angry with me...
