Hank Williams - Beyond The Sunset lyrics

Should you go first and I remain to walk the road alone I'll live in memory's garden dear with happy days we've known In spring I'll wait for roses red, when fades the lilacs bloom And in early fall when brown leaves fall, I'll catch a glimpse of you Should you go first and I remain, for battles to be fought Each thing you've touched along the way, will be a hallowed spot I'll hear your voice I'll see your smile though blindly I may grope The memory of your helping hand will buoy me on with hope Beyond the sunset, oh blissful morning When with our savior, heaven is begun Earth's toiling ended, oh glory dawning Beyond the sunset when day is done Should you go first and I remain, to finish with the scroll No lessening shadows shall ever creep in to make this life seem droll We've known so much of happiness, we've had our cup of joy And memory is one gift of God that d**h cannot destroy I want to know each step you take that I may walk the same For someday down that lonely road, you'll hear me call your name Should you go first and I remain, one thing I'll have you do Walk slowly down that long long path, for soon I'll follow you In that fair homeland, we'll know no parting Beyond the sunset for ever more
