I Love You This Much

"I Love You This Much" is a song by country music artist Jimmy Wayne. It is the second single released from his self-titled album, reaching a peak of #6 on the U.S. country charts and #53 on the Billboard Hot 100.

The song's story tells of a young man's attempts to express his love to his father, despite the father's constant distance from his son. Later, the man grows to hate his father for being so unresponsive, eventually cursing his father upon the father's death. Later, at the funeral service for his father, the man sees an image of Jesus on the cross; this image then reminds the man that he "hadn't been unloved or alone all his life".
