She dumped him and he can't get over her.
He Stopped Loving Her Today - George Jones
He said I'll love you 'til I die
She told him you'll forget in time
As the years went slowly by
She still prayed upon his mind
He kept her picture on his wall
Went half crazy now and then
He still loved her through it all
Hoping she'd come back again
Kept some letters by his bed
Dated 1962
He had underlined in red
Every single I love you.
I went to see him just today
Oh but I didn't see no tears
All dressed up to go away
First time I'd seen him smile in years
He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they'll carry him away
He stopped loving her today
(Spoken)
Ya' know she came to see him one last time
Oh, we all wondered if she would
And it kept running through my mind
This time he's over her for good
He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they'll carry him away
He stopped loving her today

Been a while since I've heard it so I'm not sure if the woman was dead or not but the man the song is about had just died; hence he "stopped loving her today."
It's referring to the old "I'll love you until the day I die" line that people tend to say to the one they love.

They broke up, he said he would love her until he died, years later he died...so he stopped loving her.

No, she didn't die. But I think she cheated on him.
