This is a story of the greatest kind of love there is The one that you love even when you're gone Stunning and beautiful she stands there by fireplace Reds greens and blues flick'ring in her eyes A small unruly curle falls down across her forehead As she reads the letter she cries (And she cries for me) she cries for me She knows that I love her she can see If my wandering soul should ever stop it will stop at her front door I can't remember when I loved anybody more What a feelin' She stands there so proudly in her simple gingham dress You can just see all the mem'ries there in her eyes She cradles a picture in two soft trembling hands She kisses the picture and softly cries (And she cries for me) God she cries for me She knows that I love her she can see So if my wandering soul should ever stop it's gonna stop at her front door I can't remember when I loved anybody more No I've never ever I've never really loved before It's such a great feelin'
