She looks briefly over her shoulder
for just a glimpse of her one true love.
In vain, she hopes, prays one last time,
for she knows he's now far above.
He was taken from her,
just when things were going right.
Now she sits and alone and cries,
in their empty bed another night.
He was her savior
her very first.. her very last.
He will always be her present
as well as her painful past.
They didn't see the car ahead,
for they were going far too fast.
She knew it was too good to be true,
this love just couldn't last.
As the dark encircled for the moment,
her last conscious thoughts were of her beau.
And as she woke without him at her side
she simply prayed he hadn't let go.
Her bones have healed with passing time
yet her heart still morns his death.
Oh what she'd do to once again
just simply hear his breath.
He is still her savior
her very first.. her very last.
He will always be her present
as well as her painful past.
She looks briefly over her shoulder
for just a glimpse of her one true love.
All that's left is his tombstone,
for she knows he's now far above.
