Next To Her

In an instant and a quick flash There was a crash near Calabash; Won't see the one I love anymore; Into my heart, a big hole it tore. She isn't around and her can't hear; To heaven has gone and did disappear; No longer will remain in my sight; Never will forget that terrible night. On the news a message I just saw; She died with my future mother in law And father who with a friend had made On front porch will sitting in the shade. Her and whole family had been killed; Was this by gracious God what He willed; If only I could bring them all back; I now am weary and have to hit the sack. In my dreams every night, she appeared And finally as my twilight had neared A question to my mind did recently occur; Will you have me buried next to her?
