It was played on album oriented stations so that counts. I remember it I just can't think of the song right now

Don't know the title but then I never did like the stones to much. unless it was covered by Flying Burrito brothers also which would make it dead flowers but I think that's another song.

***********
Last night at the dance I met Xxxxxx,
So lovely and warm, an angel of a girl.
Last night I fell in love with Xxxxxx,
Xxxxxx xxxxxx xxxxxx in this world.
As I walked her home, she said it was her birthday.
I pulled her close and said, "Will I see you anymore?"
Then suddenly she asked for my sweater
And said that she was very, very cold.
I kissed her goodnight at her door and started home
Then thought about my sweater and went right back instead.
I knocked at her door and a man appeared.
I told why I’d come then he said,
“You’re wrong son, you weren’t with my daughter.
How can you be so cruel to come to me this way?
My Xxxxxx left this world on her birthday –
She died a year ago today.â€
A strange force drew me to the graveyard.
I stood in the dark, I saw the shadows wave.
And then I looked and saw my sweater
Lying there upon her grave.
Xxxxxxx xxxxxx xxxxxx in this world.
