The man I love went away today By Jesus side he went to stay We raised the children him and I Before he left for his home in the sky I miss him ever so much I miss his laughter and his touch, I miss his friendship, his gentle ways The pleasures he brought to my days. Love like ours happens once in a life I was lucky to have been his wife, And as he left me with a great sigh, He begged for me "please don't cry, I'm going home" he said "Where at last I can lay my head, The aches and pains will soon depart, and I'm holding you close in my heart." Then he left, that man of mine He went to God's kingdom divine And there he now for me awaits With St. Peter at the Pearly Gates.
