Guess it was bound to happen.......
I got news today than mine passed away.
Simple, sad phone call.....she would not say who she was. But she knew who I was. One of her sons, I am told, is 35 years old. I have to wonder. But will never know. The Lord will tell me some day.
But the girl I once loved has passed away.
Pined for her 35 years because she could not say
that she'd be mine 'till she went away.
I would have been hers until this sad day...
But the one I once loved has passed 'way today.
True love was hers to have each every fine day
but she was not quite ready, to have it my way.
So, she had to go, and I had to stay.
But this day I have learned, and the song has to say.
That the one that I once loved, she has done passed away.
Hank sang this stuff....never thought I'd see the day.
There are things you must say in this life
no matter which way.
Because if you don't, believe me, you'll say
The one that I once loved has now passed away.
Mary, forgive me, for what we did then.
We were just children, and didn't know then
the Good Lord would ask us, and we didn't know when
that you would have to leave me....wish he'd ask me again.
But now you have gone, His grace sure to find.
But that doesn't mean, dear, that you've left my mind.
It's just still the same here, now that you have gone.
But I know more than then, dear, that I'm all alone.
BTW, she never did marry.
RIP.
MATKH.

For her.........

So true.
I always loved you.

Maybe now I can rest.
