Story Behind the Song
My beautiful courtship with my husband,
disagreements, thinking of him
leaving me, I thought of the sadness,
throwing away wedding pictures,
the promise he made to my Dad.
Lyrics
We courted for so long,
It seemed way back then,
And how hard it was for you,
To say good night at 10,
You kissed me so tenderly,
I'd just melt in your arms,
You asked for my hand that night,
And I soon left the farm.
You said to my Daddy,
A promise you made,
To take good care of me,
Till your dying day,
You said how you loved me,
And you'd just die inside,
If you couldn't have me,
Right there by your side.
(chorus)
