Lyrics

Will You Visit My Grave

He sat there on the bedside
And grieved as softly she cried
They were painfully aware her time was near
Fate's cruel end of life together
And she was worried he'd forget her
And I heard her whisper faintly through the tears


Will you visit my grave
When I'm dead and gone
Will you bring pretty flowers
To place on my stone
`Til death do us part
But if it's not too much to ask
Will you visit my grave
When they lay me `neath the grass


The silence was like thunder
And I couldn't help but wonder
If you'd care enough for me to shed a tear
On that day when life's rescinded
And my journey has ended
When death calls for me will you be standing near


Will you visit my grave
When I'm dead and gone
Will you bring pretty flowers
To place on my stone
`Til death do us part
But if it's not too much to ask
Will you visit my grave
When they lay me `neath the grass
