O love, my love how do I let you go?
As each day passes I'm lost to you as you forget this world.
In sickness and in health was the vow I made.
I've kept that vow the best I can; up with you night and day.
But I am tired o' so tired and my body is giving up.
My spirit longs to hold you near and whisper I love you, dear.
The pain of touch keeps us apart because I love you so.
Tomorrow starts our path dividing and nearer to the day;
When your soul rises to Heaven above to heal and be restored whole.
Although our parting is but for a week, just so I can rest and revive my body and my soul.
Is this God's way of preparing me for our last goodbye?
I cannot bear this pain I feel deep within my heart even though I know our spirits will never part.
Will you even know that you've left our home?
For each passing day your memory fades and your eyes an empty stare.
My love, my love I love you so.
Please remember me.
