The Love Me Left Behind


Italk 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
