I have lost a life companion, a life linked close to my own. Now I have only memories, as I travel life's highway alone. There's a vacant place at the table, and an empty rocking chair. The couch where you always rested is now so lonely and bare. When the dawn of morning wakes me, how sad to know you're not in view. And when evening shadows start to fall, my thoughts, my love, are of you. I'm so lonely here without you, sorrow, grief and many tears. But I thank our heavenly father for giving us so many good years. Sleep on, my love, and take your rest, this is God's plan we shall abide. When he calls me as he has you , then I'll be resting by your side.
