You Only Loved Her First

You loved her first before I did

You touched her soul I know

You caressed her heart brought on her smile

You set her face aglow

 

You led her straight into my arms

My love for her can't end

So here I am, before You now

My heart is Yours to mend

 

Is she there with You, does she speak of me

Could I see her but one more time

Could I kiss her lips and touch her face

Can I hold her hand in mine

 

Is her smile still sweet, does her love still show

Did she send a kiss for me

Oh! if I could change the way things are

In my arms that's where she'd be

 

Are You really sure You need her now

Can't You see I need her more

I would trade my life to You for hers

As I've told You times before

 

For You took her long before her time

Such sadness I've never known

There is no one in all this world

Who could feel so all alone

 

She was my life, my heart, sweet love

Worth more than this world of things

I would ask You please, to let me know

When she gets her Angel's wings
