I talk to him everyday 

Even though he's oh-so-far away 

And every night I lay in bed 

And hug the pillow where he laid his head 

And in my dreams I drift back to that high school kiss 

And the night he put his class ring on my hand 

I see our wedding day and it takes my breath away 

Once again, like it did back then 



I'm living on the love her left me 

And he gave me so much love in such a little time 

And that kind of love is hard to find 

One day we'll meet again in that sweet by-and-by 

But till we're back together 

I'm living on the love he left behind 



Our little boy down the hall 

Is trying to teach me how to play baseball 

Yesterday, I got choked up 

When he said, Mommy, You use daddy's glove 

I turned down a thousand bucks 

For his old pick-up truck 

I'm hangin' on to everything that's part of him 

I'll hold him in my heart 

Till I can hold him in my arms 

Once again 

But till then 



I'm living on the love her left me 

And he gave me so much love in such a little time 

And that kind of love is hard to find 

One day we'll meet again in that sweet by-and-by 

But till we're back together 

I'm living on the love he left behind 



But till we're back together 

I'm living on the love he left behind
