My Dear First Wife Linda
This is a message for my dear wife Linda
You left me much too early
Wanted to grow old together with you
But it wasn't to be sweet girlie
Snatched from me in the prime of our lives
Fairness didn't come into play
Only a few years left till our golden years
Suddenly my life's in disarray
Life has a way of coming up with surprises
Some are great, some hard to bear
Always held hope we'd always pull through
But life doesn't always play fair
So now I'm forced to roll with the punches
Dear Cathie has helped me through
Might not have made it, through this very sad time
If it wasn't for sweet loveable you
