Forever,
My
Love
I see
the
wordless
question
in
your
eyes
As I
embrace
you
in
your
final
days.
My
love,
please
rest
in
peace
and
realize
I’ll
hold
you
deep
within
my
heart
always.
For
nothing
can
erase
the
years
we
knew,
As
hand
in
hand
we
sojourned
through
this
life;
My
heart,
my
very
soul
belongs
to
you,
And
I
could
never
be
another’s
wife.
Before
you
slip
into
the
Great
Divide,
My
dearest
one,
I'd
like
for
you
to
know
I'll
keep
a
faithful
vigil
by
your
side,
And
long
to
travel
with
you
when
you
go.
Oh
love,
my
life,
forever
I
will
care,
On
earth
and
also
when
I
join
you
There.
