They laid your body down to rest beneath the old oak tree.
The pain you felt for many years has now been set free.
The angel wings that you now wear has given you a new life.
Though I know your here with me I miss being your wife
chorus
Forty years together its hard to start each day.
Though I'm very lonely and somedays are very sad
I look back at the times we've shared.
 that most have never had

Instrumental
Someday we'll be together walk hand in hand again.
Till then your strength will give me
 all we had back then

chorus
Forty years together its hard to start each day.
Though I'm very lonely and somedays are very sad
I look back at the times we've shared.
 that most have never had
