“I Heard You, Darling” is an imagined tribute from Lorrie Morgan to Keith Whitley — a final reply to the haunting words he left behind.

Inspired by Keith’s iconic song “Tell Lorrie I Love Her,” this ballad is a reflection of the love that outlived goodbye.

Classic country storytelling. Deep emotional roots.

Lyrics:
They told me you whispered my name
In the dark, when you were alone
Wish I’d known how much you were hurting
I would’ve run straight back home

I heard you, darling, loud and clear
Though you're gone, your voice stays near
If heaven lets my words get through
Tell Keith that I love him too

Every night I still hear your singing
Feel your touch in the soft summer air
But the hardest part of living without you
Is the silence now that you're not there

I heard you, darling, loud and clear
Though you're gone, your voice stays near
If heaven lets my words get through
Tell Keith that I love him too

If heaven lets my words get through
Tell Keith that I love him too
