She sits on her porch swing
Thinking about her former love
She clings to a picture of him
But now he watches from above
She remembers that night he was very stressed
She got in his car
He hadn’t had much rest
And he had just left the bar
She wanted to drive
But he said he was fine
She didn’t know he would never get to arrive
Or that it would end on an incline
He raced down the street
She yelled slow down
They just wanted to get something to eat
He didn’t need to speed in town
Neither one seen the car coming straight for them
Than all they heard was glass breaking
When the car finally stopped it was 12 am
When she woke she was aching
The nurse walk in with the papers
She said that they had saved her but not him
She slipped into a vapor
She thought it was so grim
Its been 50 years now
And the doctor said yesterday that it won’t be long
She kept her vow
That they would walk along side by side again
She slowly set the picture down next to her
Than she seen his beautiful face
She knew she had made the transfer
And all she felt was grace
