I kissed her cheek
So soft that night
When life ebbed away
Before the light
For three years she held the fight
But now sorrow breaks my heart.
The love we had
Knew now bounds
Our hearts so pure and true
But now I hold a cold lonley hand
As my love walks to the promised land
My tears are plenty
Please angels help me
For this pain burns my heart
She was my world my every breath
From our very start
Now I look at this sorrow before me
And wonder what it means
Was I so bad in life I think
For my world to fall and sink
Now I watch as the earth hides my love
Beneath the sodden ground
I know my life and my heart
Now hear an empty sound
Forever more I'll mourn my loss
Everyday an empty time
But I know deep down
Within my heart
She will again be mine
