Red Sovine - Last Goodbye lyrics

We just finished our dinner and I'd gone in the den and turned on the TV When she walked in and kissed me On the cheek like a million times before And she said "Honey, I know It's late But if you don't mind, My shoppings gotten a little behind So I think I'll drive downtown to the grocery store." Well.. I didn't look up, Just nodded OK and asked her to Hand me an ashtray And when she did, I reached over and squeezed Her hand, And then she left And I shuttered a minute At the thought of my world without her in it And I rea**uringly sought the touch Of my wedding band Well.. I musta been dozing Cuz I didn't hear the door And I thought now that's strange I've never done that before But I looked up, And she was standing by my chair "Kinda snucked in on me" I said And she smiled and nodded her head And I told her that she looked just like an angel Standing there For a long moment she didn't say a thing And then she caressed her gold wedding ring And I thought I saw a tear drop in her eye "Honey, You'll never know how much I love you" She said And I thought of the many years that we had been wed As I told her that no one could be as happy as I And then the strangest feeling filled the room Not one of happiness but one of gloom And for the first time in my life, I saw sadness in her face I reached out to touch her, and she drew away And she told be again, That ours was a love.. That time could never erase And then I thought I heard a thousand voices singing But I realized it was the telephone ringing And that's when I saw the halo Surround her pretty golden hair I turned trembling to the reciever and heard a cold voice Say there had been a wreck out on the highway And I knew that when I looked back, She wouldn't be there Because it was an angels way of saying our last goodbye
