Remember, darling, back when we were young
working summers down in Oregon?
I still know the very place I stood
when you stole my heart like a raptor would
we found some money and a piece of land
and the children found us with their tender hands
you tried to tell me that it don't last long
water deep and they'll grow up strong
when you got the news we could hardly cry
I held your hands like it would all blow by
the doctors came and then they went away
and left us drifting on that awful day
you should see how your girl's got grown
wandered everywhere the winds have blown
your baby boy he's got a heart so strong
the children love to hear their grandma's songs
life ain't easy but it sure is long
when you can't wait to get where you belong
and when I'm lying there beside your grave
we'll whisper all about the life we made
