Beyond The Sunset lyrics

(Bob Nolan - Sam Gobble)

(Beyond the sunset for evermore.)

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 watch for roses red
And shades of lilac blue
In early fall when the brown leaves fall
Then I`ll catch a glimpse of you.

Should you go first and I remain
To finish with the scroll
No lenghtening shadows shall creep in
To make this life seem droll.

We`ve known so much of happiness
Yes, we`ve had our cup of joy
And memory is one gift of God
That death cannot destroy.

Should you go first and I remain
There`s one thing I`d have you do
Walk slowly down that long path
For soon I`ll follow you.

I want you to know each step I take
So that you may walk the same
For someday down that lonely road
You`ll hear me call your name.

Beyond the sunset, oh glad reunion
With our dear loved ones who`ve gone before
In that fair homeland we`ll know no parting
Beyond the sunset for evermore...
