A Loved One's Goodbye Song Lyrics
Daniel O'Donnell. An Irish country music song about loosing your wife who you have spent your whole life with and the heartbreak that follows. Irish Country Music Lyrics
I have also included another song by Daniel called ''The Love In Your Eyes''. I haven't been able to find out who wrote the song buy judging by the comments on Daniel's version on youtube I'd say the original was a German song.

This world's a strange place to live in.
And the Lord work's in so many ways.
Said an old man sat by his fireside.
With a tear in his eyes he gazed.
At the picture that sat there beside him.
As he siged with a smile of regret,
God's taking my darling to heaven,
That true love I'll never forget.
As he turned and gazed at the turf fire
I could see his eyes glow in a daze.
As he talked of a life-time together.
And the family had each gone their ways.
Just now when we could be so happy.
The good Lord has torn us apart.
We'll be united in heaven.
I hope and I pray in my heart.
We both shared each precious moment,
The laughter the joy and the tears.
The good times the bad the happy and sad,
We had them all through the years.
I know this world keeps on turning,
But no matter how hard I try,
I can't hide the pain or the sorrow.
That comes with a dear one's goodbye.
Up Key.
A friend a true love and companion,
Were some of the things that he lost.
Someone who gave all her lifetime
And never once counted the cost.
Later that years Angels called him,
To walk up that heavenly stairs.
But I knew as I knelt by his grave-side.
That the good Lord had ansered his prayers.
They both shared each precious moment,
The laughter the joy and the tears.
The good times the bad the happy and sad,
They had them all through the years.
I know this world keeps on turning,
But no matter how hard I try,
I can't hide the pain or the sorrow.
That comes with a dear one's goodbye.
I can't hide the pain or the sorrow.
That comes with a dear one's goodbye.
And the Lord work's in so many ways.
