On this lonely keyboard
I type these lonely words
Echoing voices and visions
Of once I saw and heard

First words of our children
Love of their mother too
Now echo in my mind
As I sit and write to you

Funny how the memories
Of such a distant past
Seem to always haunt me
Damn, time has gone so fast

Was it not that long ago
We were young and full of life
Remember well that moment
Asking you to be my wife

All you did was nod your head
So excited you couldn't speak
I didn't know what to think
As tears were running down your cheek

We married on an autumn day
Trees filled with leaves of red and brown
The luster from their colors
Enhanced your beauty in your gown

Years have past so quickly
Our children have all grown
Grand kids on my knee
I play now with them alone

Know you're here in spirit
Can feel you close by me
Show grand kids your picture
Tell them how we used to be

All I have are memories now
Of your smile and your kiss
Really never knew how much
Your loving I would miss

On this lonely keyboard
I'm typing lonely words
Echoing voices and visions
That once I saw and heard
