I talk to him everyday
|
Even though he's oh-so-far away
|
And every night I lay in bed
|
And hug the pillow where he laid his head
|
And in my dreams I drift back to that high school kiss
|
And the night he put his class ring on my hand
|
I see our wedding day and it takes my breath away
|
Once again, like it did back then
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
|
I'm living on the love her left me
|
And he gave me so much love in such a little time
|
And that kind of love is hard to find
|
One day we'll meet again in that sweet by-and-by
|
But till we're back together
|
I'm living on the love he left behind
|
|
Our little boy down the hall
|
Is trying to teach me how to play baseball
|
Yesterday, I got choked up
|
When he said, Mommy, You use daddy's glove
|
I turned down a thousand bucks
|
For his old pick-up truck
|
I'm hangin' on to everything that's part of him
|
I'll hold him in my heart
|
Till I can hold him in my arms
|
Once again
|
But till then
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
But till we're back together
|
I'm living on the love he left behind
|
