Tonie was sleeping alone in our bed, With out any blanket or sheet So I grabbed her a pillow, kissed her forehead And covered those beautiful feet I sat and I stared at the grey in her hair and the years she had spent in my life I feel the same as I did on that day when I asked her to be my wife We sang out Hallelujah Hallelujah Tonie was sleeping alone in our bed, With out any blanket or sheet So I grabbed her a pillow, kissed her forehead And covered those beautiful feet Well I love this old house where we've lived all these years And we built with the blood from our hands Gathering rocks as our children played near And we laid them all out on our land I sat and I stared at the grey in her hair and the years she had spent in my life I feel the same as I did on that day when I asked her to be my wife A woman of grace so peaceful her face like the colors that shine in the fall Made me believe that this girl here with me, is the only woman I've known We sang out Hallelujah Hallelujah We sang out Hallelujah Hallelujah
