Every Tear Is A Token Of My Love
I want to send a lovely card to my beloved wife but address is unknown
O Lord help me locate her and give her the bouquet of roses I have grown
Please tell her she is always in my thoughts and there is where she will stay
The vows we took those years ago still bind us together till this day
When she was taken away from my life and hidden from my daily view
Not only was she taken away from my world but also my heart and soul blew
Although we are separated for a while, our lasting love would never wane
Because we were as one while on this earth and on the other side will again
It is hard to lose the one you love but when you do, your world has gone
But what of the one who is left behind, I feel that I just cannot carry on
Why is it that we cannot go together but one or the other must go first?
It is hard to be the one who goes or stays and this seems to be the worst
Why was she the first one and I am staying here to suffer the headache through?
It is unbearable to bear the loss and watch the loved one grieve for you
I wasn’t given the choice but I regret that it turned out to be her time
It has been very hard to sustain the sorrow but the pain and grief is mine
So until my time on this earth is through and I am ready to join her up above
Every heart beat I miss and every tear I shed has to be the token of my love.
